Gateway Harley-Davidson to Giveaway Motorcycle to Soldier and Donation To USO

Submitted by Kelley Hoskins on Thursday, November 8th, 12:26 pm

SOUTH ST. LOUIS COUNTY (KTVI)- What brings up to 4,000 military personnel to one place? On November 10th at Gateway Harley-Davidson, it will be the chance to win a free 2012 Harley-Davidson Sportster (MSRP $7,999). Throughout the year, the dealership has sold $10 raffle tickets to the public for the chance to win a 2012 Harley-Davidson Street Glide (MSRP $19,499). Each time a raffle ticket is purchased for the Street Glide, Gateway enters a military member’s name into the Sportster drawing. All of the proceeds from the raffle will be donated to the USO of Missouri, and both motorcycles will be raffled off on November 10th at 4pm.

The only catch…all military personnel must be present to win the Sportster.
