HESPERIA – For the fourth year, Scott Rumsey, Owner of Ed’s Orchard Market, partnered with the Hesperia Athletic Boosters for a major fundraiser.

Throughout the months of September and October, over 300 tickets were sold for an opportunity to win one of three timed shopping sprees. Three winners are chosen each year – two with one minute to shop and the grand prize winner with three minutes to run around the store, gathering as many items as possible.

“We love supporting our local athletes and our community, and this is just one way we are able to support Hesperia,” said Rumsey. The event has raised more than $7,500 over the past four years for the athletic boosters, which help to support Hesperia Community Schools athletic programs with items such as uniforms, equipment and scholarships.

Tickets for next year’s fundraiser will be available at Ed’s Orchard Market beginning in August of 2020.
