Tailgate4kids to Raffle Off a Tailgate Station Parking Space

Tailgate4kids.org is holding a raffle to benefit the scholarship fund of the Athens “Y” Camps in North Georgia.  Full ownership of a Tailgate Station parking space will be awarded to the ticket holder of the willing raffle ticket in December 2009.  The proceeds collected from this raffle will help create an endowment for kids to attend the Athens “Y” Camps.


Tailgate4kids.org is dedicated to the idea that every child should be able to attend summer camp. By joining together with the Athens “Y” Camps, we have developed a way for more kids around Georgia to get this chance.  Scholarships are awarded on an as-needed basis dependant on parental financial need.  Financial need is determined by a review of a parent’s income tax return.  A ten-dollar ($10.00) tax-deductible raffle ticket ensures the purchaser an opportunity to win a parking space for all UGA home football games for life.

McGinnis Leathers will be traveling for six months to visit community organizations, Churches, Schools, Bulldog Clubs, Boys & Girls Clubs, and Alumni Associations across Georgia.  McGinnis will bring the message of awareness to parents of the potential for youth development and leadership through the Athens “Y” Camps.

To secure a presentation for your group or any other, please contact McGinnis Leathers at 706.613.9098 or see the website at www.tailgate4kids.org for the opportunity to participate or buy tickets.
