CALENDAR OF EVENTS

Throughout the year, the Florida Lottery participates in local events and radio remotes across the state, providing community outreach and support. Taking part in these events helps the Lottery to increase public awareness of the Lottery's commitment to education. The following is a listing of events where the Florida Lottery is participating:

Five qualifiers will be chosen on site at each Winning Wednesday radio remote event from players who have purchased two Indiana Jones Scratch-Off Tickets. The qualifiers must be 18 years of age or older, register with a Florida Lottery employee and be present at the drawing. Each qualifier will select a key from a container in order of selection as a qualifier. After all qualifiers have selected their keys, they will try, in order, to unlock the three treasure chests. The qualifier whose key opens the chest will be the winner of the prize inside. Prizes vary from a navigation system, to an Indiana Jones Prize pack, to Indiana Jones Scratch-Off tickets! Good Luck!
