N.D. Stockmen’s Foundation offers guns in raffle

The North Dakota Stockmen’s Foundation (NDSF) is offering two rifles – a Savage 12 LP Varmint 204 with a scope and a Henry Big Boy Lever-Action Rifle 45L – along with a $500 Runnings gift card in its sixth annual rifle raffle.

Proceeds benefit the NDSF, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that was created to advance North Dakota beef industry leadership, scholarship, research, building and promotion objectives. Among its recent projects was the Aid for Atlas Disaster Relief effort, which provided nearly $155,000 in direct aid to livestock producers who suffered catastrophic losses in the October 2013 storm.

Rifle raffle tickets are available from any NDSF director or the NDSF office at 407 S. 2nd St., Bismarck, ND 58504 for $20 per ticket. Only 1,000 tickets will be sold. The winning tickets will be drawn during the North Dakota Stockmen’s Association’s 85thAnnual Convention & Trade Show at the Grand Dakota Lodge in Dickinson, N.D., Sept. 26, at 7 p.m.
