THE RAFFLE: In addition, a raffle will be held during the gala for a mountain get-away to an Estes Park condominium, which is part of a historic lodge now known as the Marys Lake Lodge. Built in 1913, the lodge was extensively remodeled and expanded beginning in 2000. The condo has two bedrooms, two baths, a full kitchen, and a large deck overlooking the lake and the Mummy Range in Rocky Mountain National Park. This is an ideal spot for a summer vacation. Two restaurants are on site along with a pool, hot tub, salon, and full service spa. Bedroom #1 has a queen bed, and # 2 has two twins. Included in the package are four days and three nights at the condo as well as certificates toward round-trip air tickets for two to Denver.
