Every year there is a lottery for tickets and religion plays no part in it anyone getting the tickets. All a person has to do is get in the lottery.

No color, religion, creed, sexual orientation etc. is asked. Just a name and a number of tickets.

Goodness. This easter we celebrated an easter egg hunt with our neighbors, one mom is jewish. It was secular in every way one would imagine, just like this is.
