Longtime Islanders Tomi and Henry Egashira won first prize in the Bainbridge Island Historical Museum’s “Save Our History” raffle and walked away with a check for $5,000.

The second prize, an iPad mini, went to Islanders Sarah and Rudy Morosoff.

A total of 2,952 tickets were sold for this year’s raffle, and the raffle also brought in another 32 donations from people who didn’t want a ticket but wanted to help out the museum, anyway.

The raffle brought in $26,538 (including the proceeds given away as the top prize).
