SARANAC LAKE — The Adirondack Health Foundation is hosting a raffle for an antique wooden runabout, which was donated by former Upper Saranac residents Joe and Charlotte Blitt.

The 14-foot Peterborough boat has a 15-horsepower outboard motor with seating for five. The boat is currently named “Amah and Grandpa,” which is what the Blitts’ grandchildren call them. The boat was built in 1940 by the Peterborough Canoe Works in Ontario, Canada. It was originally owned by Levi Morton, former New York governor and U.S. vice president, and was restored by Joe Blitt.

The winning ticket will be drawn on Saturday, July 6 at Adirondack Health’s annual Gala on the shores of Lower St. Regis at Paul Smith’s College. Ticket holders do not need to be present to win.

Tickets cost $20 each or six for $100.
