Give 270 proudly presented a $3,650 donation to the Elizabethtown Rotary Club, raised during Round 14 of the Whiskey Wednesdays raffle series. These funds will go directly to the club’s scholarship program, supporting students in the Elizabethtown area as they pursue higher education.
Each year, the Elizabethtown Rotary Club awards scholarships to deserving local students—helping remove financial barriers to college and post-secondary opportunities. By investing in these young leaders, the Rotary Club is living out its mission of “Service Above Self” and strengthening the future of our community.
Thanks to the support of our Whiskey Wednesday participants, this contribution is another great example of how a simple $5 ticket can have a lasting impact. Together, we’re turning bourbon into a force for good—one bottle and one student at a time.

Whiskey Wednesday Round 15 is off to a powerful start, and we’re thrilled to share that April 16th Whiskey Wednesday raised $3,136.30 for the Elizabethtown Community & Technical College (ECTC) Foundation!
Each round of Whiskey Wednesday brings together our generous community for a chance to win top-notch bottles of bourbon—and more importantly, to give back to causes making a real impact right here at home. This week was no exception.
The ECTC Foundation plays a vital role in improving lives across our region by supporting students, faculty, and strategic college initiatives. Through scholarships, program development, and emergency student assistance, the foundation ensures that more people have access to education, training, and the tools they need to succeed.
As their mission states: “Better Lives for a Better Community.” And thanks to our Whiskey Wednesday supporters, over $3,100 will go toward making that mission a reality.

To everyone who bought a ticket, spread the word, or raised a glass in support—thank you. Your generosity continues to show just how powerful a simple $5 ticket (and a good pour of bourbon) can be.
Stay tuned for more – we’re just getting started. Cheers to community, connection, and giving back.
