The Royal Raffle Returns for 2024

Enter to win a visit to Virginia’s largest seabird breeding colony at Fort Wool this summer! Our raffle winner receives a unique and exciting opportunity to enter the Fort Wool habitat complex in Hampton, VA, which is closed to the public to protect the breeding birds. This exclusive raffle is being offered by The Virginia Society of Ornithology, in partnership with the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources (DWR).

 Your Entry Will Support Bird Conservation

All the funds raised from this raffle will support creation of the 2nd Virginia Breeding Bird Atlas website. The website will present the field data and analysis from the 5-year Atlas project, documenting the current status and distribution of Virginia’s breeding birds. The Atlas website will essentially inform bird conservation in Virginia and beyond.

Eligibility

  • Minimum age of the winner and their guest is 18.
  • Prior winners and their guests are not eligible.

Important Note: The date of the trip to Fort Wool is to be determined. The anticipated timeframe is sometime between July 8 and July 21. The date will not be on the annual “big banding day” but a small-scale banding activity is possible during the visit. The date will be determined in mid-late June.

Tickets are available through June 15, 2024.
