Dayton, Ohio (WDTN) - This Saturday night the Boonshoft Museum of Discovery will host its annual Gala, but the best part is you could drive away with a brand new car!

The drawing for the annual Reverse Raffle will take place, awarding lucky winners with dozens of supplemental fabulous prizes, culminating in the keys to a 2013 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible.

Guests will enjoy behind-the-scenes tours and custom shows in The Dome, classic cocktails, hors d’oeuvres in the Planetarium, and live music.

As always, the highlight of the evening will be the Reverse Raffle, as dozens of prizes – from a hot air balloon ride and a weekend getaway to spa days and golf outings – will be given away. 

The Raffle will culminate in one lucky winner driving away in the feature prize of a 2013 Chevy Camaro Convertible.All proceeds from the 2012Boonshoft Gala will benefit the Astronomy Department at the Museum.
