Official Rules: The $5 Daily Snow Pass Raffle
1. Overview & Mechanics
The Daily Snow Pass is an independent 50/50 virtual raffle category benefiting Connected Learning (501c3). Participants purchase entries for specific calendar dates. Each calendar date represents its own standalone prize pool equal to 50% of the total gross ticket revenue collected for that specific date.
2. Qualifying "Snow Day" Condition (All 7 Districts Required)
A Daily Snow Pass pot will be unlocked and winning entries awarded ONLY if ALL SEVEN (7) of the following school districts officially declare a full-day closure or an Alternative Methods of Instruction (AMI / E-Learning) day on account of winter weather for the selected calendar date:
Fort Zumwalt School District
Fox C-6 School District
Hazelwood School District
Lindbergh Schools
Pattonville School District
Parkway School District
Rockwood School District
All seven districts must announce a closure for the same calendar date for the daily prize pool to trigger.
3. Verification & Official Data Sources
Closures must be verified through official public communications issued by each individual school district or recorded on local St. Louis meteorology closure trackers (KSDK Channel 5 or KMOV Channel 4).
4. No-Snow Policy & Non-Triggered Dates
If fewer than all seven specified school districts declare a closure on a given date (or if zero closures are declared), no winner payouts will be conducted for that date. In accordance with event policy, 100% of ticket sales for non-triggered dates automatically convert into a direct, non-refundable charitable contribution to Connected Learning.
5. Sales Deadline & Cut-Off
All ticket purchases for all calendar dates permanently close at 11:59 PM CST on December 1, 2026. No entries or date modifications will be permitted after this time.
6. Winner Selection & Split Payout Mechanics
Split Pot Structure: When a qualifying Snow Day occurs, 100% of the daily prize pool (50% of gross ticket sales for that date) will be divided equally among ALL ticket holders who purchased an entry for that winning date.
Equal Distribution: Each valid ticket purchased for the triggered date represents one equal share of the daily prize pool. (For example, if the daily prize pool total is $500 and 10 tickets were sold for that date, each ticket holder receives a $50 payout per ticket held).
Payout Distribution: Payouts will be distributed via check or electronic transfer issued by Connected Learning following official verification of school district closures.
Tax Responsibility: Winners are responsible for all applicable federal, state, and local taxes. Any individual receiving cumulative payouts over $600 must provide a completed IRS Form W-9 prior to prize disbursement.
7. Eligibility
Participants must be 18 years of age or older and physically located in or a resident of the State of Missouri at the time of purchase. Void where prohibited by law.
