Escambia County High School is selling the chance to win 50 different prizes over the span of 50 summer days.

ECHS’s “50 Days of Summer Giveaway” is a new fundraiser to help finance the athletic programs at the school. For $50, a participant can compete in 50 different drawings spread out each day from July 6 through Aug. 24.

Each day’s drawing has a different prize, and every winner is put back into the selection pool, so it is possible for the same person to win multiple times.
The prizes have been donated or sold to the school at a discount, from local businesses and individuals.

Tickets are available from any ECHS Athletic Booster Club member, or at the school (251-368-9181). School hours during June are Mondays through Thursdays, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
