Win a Tim Montana Signed Guitar and Support Laurel EMS
This is one of those feel-good fundraisers that checks a lot of boxes. Laurel Emergency Medical Services is hosting a raffle that gives you a chance to win something genuinely cool, while supporting the people who show up when someone’s having their worst day.
A Guitar With Montana Roots and Meaning
Thanks to the generosity of Music Villa, the prize for this raffle is a beautiful Epiphone Les Paul guitar signed by Montana native Tim Montana. If you love music, that alone is pretty exciting. But knowing that Tim Montana is a strong supporter of first responders and veterans adds another layer of meaning, turning this from a cool prize into something that truly symbolizes giving back.
Limited Tickets and a Drawing Right Before Christmas
Only 250 tickets are being sold at $50 each, and just over 200 are still up for grabs. The drawing will be held on December 19, so there’s time to get in, but this is a short and sweet raffle that won’t drag on for months. It’s an easy way to support a great cause and have a chance at something truly special.

Backed by an Artist Who Gives Back
Tim Montana isn’t just a name written across the guitar. The Montana native has long been outspoken in his support for first responders and veterans, regularly using his platform to give back to the people who show up and serve their communities every day. By signing the guitar for this fundraiser, he’s adding real heart to the prize and a meaningful show of support for Laurel Ambulance Service and the crews who serve the region.
An Ambulance Service That Serves the Whole Region
Laurel Ambulance Service covers far more than just the city of Laurel, which surprises a lot of people. Their crews serve more than 250 square miles, stretching into parts of the west end of Billings up to 72nd Street, and they regularly provide mutual aid to nearby communities like Joliet, Park City, Broadview, Molt, Duck Creek, and Blue Creek. The goal of this fundraiser is to help purchase a new ambulance so they can continue answering calls and caring for thousands of people across the region for years to come.
Neighbors Stepping Up for Neighbors
This raffle is just one part of a larger fundraising effort made possible by local support. Businesses, organizations, and individuals across the community have stepped up with donations, time, and talents to help move this project forward. Laurel Ambulance Service shared its thanks to everyone who has already pitched in, because every ticket purchased and every dollar raised truly makes a difference.
A Guitar With a Greater Purpose
At the end of the day, this raffle really isn’t about the guitar, even though the guitar is pretty incredible. It’s about making sure that when someone in the Laurel area needs help, an ambulance is ready to respond. If supporting that mission also gives you a chance to take home a signed Les Paul, that’s a great bonus. Anyone interested can purchase a raffle ticket here to help support Laurel Ambulance Service and this important community effort.
