Bill purchased one of the 500 tickets available and found out late last week he won a brand new Lexus.
“I was gob smacked,” Bill told collingwoodfc.com.au.
“I saw that there were only 500 tickets on offer so I thought my chances were pretty good.”
The raffle has raised valuable funds for the development of the club’s community centre at Victoria Park.
The club wishes to thank everyone who supported the Victoria Park Raffle this year and in particular to Lexus who provided the magnificent Lexus IS 250 Prestige as the major prize.
A lifelong Collingwood supporter, Bill is planning on selling his current car, a Chrysler, when he receives the Lexus later this year.
“I have customised the Lexus to be black on the exterior and interior.
“Looking forward to the upgrade.”
Congratulations to the following winners on their good fortune:
1st Prize: Bill Wiltshire, Club 5 member from Melton (The Lexus IS 250 Prestige)
2nd Prize: Con Koummas from Bruce, ACT (Ten tickets to the Collingwood President’s Function)
3rd Prize: Paul Bibby, Chairman of the Woodsmen (2011 Collingwood signed Guernsey)
