Lottery players in Mississippi have just under a week to enter for a shot at winning a pontoon boat and a hefty cash prize as the Summer for Fun drawing nears.
The Mississippi Lottery Corporation is offering a 20-foot Sun Tracker pontoon from Performance Marine in Columbus, $10,000 in cash, and a 65-quart RTIC cooler for its June 25 drawing.
Also included in the boat’s party barge package is a 75-horsepower Mercury motor and a trailer for the grand prize winner to possibly use for Independence Day festivities.
“What better way to celebrate summer and have fun than with the chance of winning prizes,” Mississippi Lottery President Jeff Hewitt said. “Anyone 21 or older who is a Mississippi Lottery Insider can enter our promotions. Players look forward to this promotion each year.”
Awards are not just limited to the first-place winner. There is a $10,000 cash prize for the second name drawn, a $5,000 third-place prize, and a Yeti cooler for the fourth person selected.
The Summer of Fun promotion began with the first weekly drawing on May 21. No purchase is necessary to enter. Mississippi Lottery Insiders receive a link for entries each week, and others may enter via QR codes at Lottery play centers statewide. Participants can submit one entry per week, and winners are notified via certified letter.
The final drawing of the summer-themed series will be held on August 27 and features a 2024 Nissan Titan Pro-4x truck from Gulfport Nissan, $10,000, and an RTIC cooler as the top prize.
