Lottery Summer FunOnce again, the Lottery’s Summer of Fun Promotion has lined up a host of fun prizes, ranging from RecTeq pellet grills and Yeti coolers to cold hard cash, and this year, the stakes are even higher.

The 18-foot party barge package includes a 75-horsepower Mercury Motor and a trailer, and the top prize winner in the June 26 drawing also receives $10,000. There’s also an $8,000 cash second prize, a $4,000 third prize, and a Yeti Hopper cooler fourth prize.

“This is the Lottery’s second year to run the Summer of Fun promotion,” said Lottery President Jeff Hewitt. “Our players had so much fun with this last year, we decided to make it bigger and better for 2023. We’re giving away a party barge and cash to the top winner in the June 26 drawing. That’s huge.

“There’s no purchase required to enter,” he said. “People just need to complete a form for each drawing.”

There are more cash and prizes each week, ending with the final drawing on Aug. 28, which features the biggest Mississippi Lottery promotional splash yet: a 2023 Nissan Titan Pro-4x truck from Gulfport Nissan and $10,000.
