After providing electricity to Springfield for more than 60 years, the five generators inside James River Power Station have been retired and the stacks are coming down. United Way of the Ozarks is partnering with City Utilities to offer a once-in-a-lifetime fundraising opportunity called Blasting for the Better. This special raffle event offers the chance to detonate the implosion of the James River Power Station stacks on February 19.
All proceeds will support United Way of the Ozarks. The chance to enter the raffle ends on Wednesday, February 16 at 5:00 p.m.
You can purchase raffle tickets for $5 an entry. For more information on the fundraiser, or to enter to win click here.
You can also enter to win by texting “BLAST to 91999.”
Thank you for your continued support of United Way of the Ozarks and for helping us make our community better every day.
