The drawing for three prizes in the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum‘s annual New Car Raffle took place at the museum on Tuesday, November 17, 2015, under Indiana gaming license #137369.

This year was the fourth time in the history of the “Win a New Car Raffle” that all 999 tickets were sold, which allowed the first place winner to choose between a new car or a cash prize. Museum visitors and volunteers were asked to draw the lucky winners at about 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 17, 2015.

The lucky first prize winner, Dora Johnson of Auburn, Indiana, chose to take the cash prize over an automobile. When asked about the winner’s reaction to the news, museum business manager Jan Schippers said “She was so excited and felt extremely lucky to be the winner.”

The second prize was awarded to David Spinazzole of Lindenhurst, New York who was ecstatic about winning. “I think supporting the Museum is a good thing to do and I am happy to be a winner,” he said.

Tina Hattaway of Buford, Georgia was the third prize winner.

“The ‘Win a New Car Raffle’ is an annual museum fundraiser that people look forward to. We are thankful to have the support of Auburn, Indiana, car dealerships including Auburn Chrysler Dodge Jeep, Ben Davis Ford, Inc., and Ben Davis Chevrolet along with many loyal raffle ticket purchasers who support the museum each year,” said Kendra Klink, chief operating office of the Auburn Cord Duesenberg Automobile Museum.
