To celebrate their 30th birthdays, the Islanders and Friends of the Arts have joined forces to make one Long islander the lucky winner of a skybox at Nassau Coliseum. This skybox, for up to 14 people, will be available to the winner during one Islanders game in the coming season.

The Islanders and Friends of the Arts are sponsoring a limited raffle for the skybox with all proceeds benefiting Friends of the Arts concerts and Arts in Education programs. Other raffle prizes include Islanders memorabilia and signed collectors items.

Raffle tickets are $50 each and may be purchased at any Planting Fields concert this summer or may be obtained by calling the Friends of the Arts office at 922-0061. The winners will be notified and need not be present for the drawing.

Only 300 raffles will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis. For further information on the raffle or about concerts and programs offered by Friends of the Arts, call 922-0061.
