Twenty-nine years ago, former Special Olympics Montana CEO Bob Norbie approached Town Pump founder Tom Kenneally, Sr. and asked if Town Pump would sell MTN Chevy Truck Raffle tickets to benefit Special Olympics Montana. Tom responded, “Leave us some tickets and let us see what we can do.”

From that conversation, Town Pump’s annual campaign to sell MTN Chevy Truck raffle tickets began. Today, it is a major fundraising campaign that Town Pump team members participate in.

Throughout the year, Team Town Pump witnesses the “teamwork” exhibited by Special Olympics Montana athletes, coaches, supporters, staff, and board members. That spirit of teamwork inspires the Town Pump team.

Since its inception, more than 3 million tickets have been sold and Town Pump has been a critical partner. This year, Town Pump has a goal of selling 40,000 tickets. Tickets are available at Town Pump, MTN, City Motor Company, Denny Menholt Chevrolet, Murdoch’s Ranch & Home Supply, Tire-Rama, SCHEELS (Great Falls), First Interstate Bank, and from the members of the Knights of Columbus through May 12, 2023.

Tickets are also available online through May 18, 2023.

The drawing will be held midday on Friday, May 19th.
