The Drop Bear Dash is a charity raffle run by the Rotary Club of Narrandera to fund the koala preservation in Narrandera. By buying a raffle entry you agree to these terms.
Who can enter
Open to NSW residents 18+. One entry equals one ticket in the draw on race day.
The draw
Placings are determined by a livestreamed race held Saturday 19 September 2026 at 2pm AEST. Bears that finish top three trigger live prize draws — and the prizes are serious. Full reveal before race day. Prize draws are made from entries on the placing bears, and draw results are final.
Permit
Conducted under NSW Fair Trading raffle permit — number to be displayed on this page and in the site footer once issued. The raffle will not commence selling tickets until the permit is in place.
Refunds
See the refund policy. In short: entries are donations to a registered charity and not refundable except where required by law.
Liability
The Rotary Club of Narrandera is not liable for delays caused by payment processors, email delivery, or factors outside our control.
The Crew Cup — free bonus draw
The Crew Cup is a separate, free prize draw run alongside the raffle. No purchase is necessary and no purchase improves your chance of winning: crew points are earned from sharing activity alone, and every 10 crew points earns one ticket in the free draw.
Open to entrants 18+. One account per person. Points are awarded for what your personal link verifiably delivers — unique visitors (de-duplicated per person per day), list sign-ups and backings — plus one-off achievement badges. Clicks on your own link do not count. Automated, purchased or otherwise manipulated activity voids all crew points and entries at the organiser's discretion. Daily caps and anti-fraud damping apply.
You are never required to post publicly, tag anyone, or share to a timeline to enter.
Prestige badges celebrate backers but never award points — tickets can only be earned free. Point badges come only from sharing, link outcomes and engagement.
Crew Cup tickets are not raffle entries, are not sold, are non-transferable, and have no cash value. The Crew Cup does not affect the races or any raffle prize draw. The winner is drawn at random, weighted by tickets held, and revealed on the broadcast after the last race on Saturday 19 September 2026.
