What are raffle tickets?
A raffle ticket is a fun way to support the Bocilla Islands Conservancy while giving yourself the chance to win exciting prizes. Individual raffle tickets are $25 each, and you may donate any amount. For every $100 donated, you will receive 5 raffle tickets.
When you arrive at the event, you will receive your raffle tickets at check-in. We keep track of all donations in our database, so your tickets will be ready for you. Simply write your name on each ticket and place the tickets in the prize boxes for the items you hope to win. The more tickets you place in a prize box, the greater your chances of winning that prize.

Do I have to be present for a Raffle Ticket Prize?

Buy BBQ Tickets & Scavenger Hunt Tickets
How Do Raffle Tickets Differ From Scavenger Hunt Prizes?
Raffle prizes and scavenger hunt prizes are two separate ways to win.
Raffle tickets are received through donations to the Bocilla Islands Conservancy. Individual raffle tickets are $25 each, and for every $100 donated, you will receive 5 raffle tickets. You may place your raffle tickets into the boxes for the prizes you hope to win.
Scavenger hunt prizes are separate and are earned by purchasing a $10 Scavenger Hunt ticket and completing the scavenger hunt. Once you finish the hunt and turn in your completed card, you will receive a Scavenger Hunt prize ticket. You can then place that ticket into the box for the scavenger hunt prize you would like to win. Scavenger Hunt prize tickets are separate from fundraiser raffle tickets and can only be used for Scavenger Hunt prizes.
Scavenger hunt tickets can only be used for scavenger hunt prizes, and raffle tickets can only be used for raffle prizes. This allows everyone to enjoy the hunt while also giving supporters the opportunity to help fund conservation and win exciting raffle items.
What if I made a donation when I purchased my BBQ tickets?
We will keep track of any donations you make when purchasing your BBQ tickets. While the cost of your BBQ tickets is not considered a donation, any additional contribution you choose to make, beginning at $25, will count toward raffle tickets. For every $100 donated, you will receive 5 raffle tickets. We will record your donations in our database and have the appropriate number of raffle tickets ready for you when you check in at the event.
What are all the Raffle Prizes?
Your donation helps the Bocilla Islands Conservancy fulfill its primary mission of acquiring and protecting land for conservation. As a 100% volunteer organization, we rely on community support to preserve critical wildlife habitat and ensure the natural beauty of our islands remains intact for future generations.
Your support also helps us educate residents and visitors about the unique ecosystems that make our islands so special. Through educational signs, lectures, citizen science, and hands-on programs, we strive to inspire stewardship and connect people with the natural world around them.
In addition, your generosity helps fund habitat restoration, invasive species removal, gopher tortoise relocation, living shoreline restoration, and clean water initiatives such as Vertical Oyster Gardens and artificial dock habitats. These are just a few of the ways your support helps protect our islands, improve water quality, and leave a lasting legacy for future generations.
Join our conservation programs to protect and restore our island’s ecosystems. Volunteer your time and talents, make a donation to support essential resources, or participate in our adoption program by nurturing sea oats or mangrove propagules, or adopting a mini reef to aid in marine life restoration.
