2 Idaho Lottery players will be millionaires in the new year – East Idaho News
BOISE – Two lucky Idaho Lottery players who participated in the 2025 Idaho $1,000,000 Raffle will begin the New Year as Idaho’s newest millionaires!
All 500,000 tickets in the Idaho Lottery’s traditional holiday game, the Idaho $1,000,000 Raffle, have been sold and the game has officially ended. The last ticket was sold Thursday, December 11.
This year’s game was one of the fastest-selling in the 19-year history of the Idaho $1,000,000 Raffle. After last year’s very successful game, the Idaho Lottery continued the game with two top prizes of $1,000,000. They also added a $100,000 prize and a $50,000 prize.
It is the 18th sellout and the 11th time the game has sold out before Christmas.
“We want to remind everyone this game features two, one-million-dollar top prizes. Last year, unfortunately, one of those $1,000,000 prizes was never claimed,” said Andrew Arulanandam, Idaho Lottery Director. “Keep your tickets in a safe place and remember to go online and check them after the drawing.”
The winning numbers will be announced at 5:59 p.m. Mountain Time on Monday, December 29.
“Idaho Raffle tickets are popular holiday gifts. So, this year, two lucky Idahoans could be instant millionaires because of their stocking stuffers!” added Arulanandam.
Players can check their tickets for winning numbers online, at all Idaho Lottery retail locations, on the Idaho Lottery winning numbers hotline at (208) 334-4656, or by using the Idaho Lottery Check-a-Ticket app for their iPhone or Android phone.
Besides the guaranteed top prizes of $1,000,000, there are over 21,500 additional prizes ranging from $15 up to $100,000. This year’s game also featured twenty, $1,000 prizes mid-game for players who purchased one of the 25,000th tickets. There were 15 daily, $1,000 winners during the first 15 days of sales. All players are encouraged to check their tickets for these promotion winners manually by visiting idaholottery.com.
All winning tickets of $1,000 and higher in this game must be claimed at Lottery offices in Boise. Players will have 180 days after the draw announcement on December 29, to claim their prizes.
This year’s Idaho $1,000,000 Raffle generated over $1.7 million for the Idaho Lottery’s beneficiaries, Idaho public schools and buildings.

Idaho dance group preserves Mexican traditions through holiday Posada performances
NAMPA, Idaho — Families across Idaho celebrate traditions this season, and Ballet Folklorico Yareth de Idaho is bringing those stories to life with every step and every song, sharing the magic of a Posada with the community.
“Folklorico is very much our culture. It shows the whole story of Mexico,” said Marifer Avila, Ballet Folklorico Yareth de Idaho Instructor.

Idaho dance group preserves mexican posada traditions through folklorico
Walk into the Idaho Hispanic Community Center, and you’ll hear music bursting through the halls and see dancers from Ballet Folklorico Yareth de Idaho preparing for the most meaningful season in their culture.
“We as a group try our best to represent the most accurate when it comes to songs, steps, storytelling, vestuario; everything involved has a purpose, and from head to toe has to mean a purpose at all times,” Avila said.

With each step and every verse, they reveal what a posada truly is, full of life, color, and community. Their ballet folklorico performances don’t just celebrate the season; they help preserve rich traditions from regions across Mexico.
“It’s a big party traditionally in Mexico. It’s a Catholic holiday. It’s with a procession which is called birino posada— going to a door, getting rejected, going to another door, getting rejected again, and then finally having the host be like, ‘Fine, you can come in.’ And then there’s this party with piñatas and music and dancing and food and then prayers and a baby rocking,” Avila said.
For Avila, guiding her 30 students through every step and lyric isn’t just teaching — it’s ensuring each tradition is represented with heart and authenticity.

“They’ve learned that it’s a discipline, you know — wanting to go or not wanting to go, they’re here. You know, they’re learning that it’s a responsibility. It’s so beautiful that we can, as a group, represent that the best of our abilities on a stage where people can be entertained and understand our culture,” she said
Their holiday posada is sold out, and the group says plans are already in place to bring more dances to life in the new year.
