so, if you're paddling for a team, are you automatically entered?   Or do you have to buy lottery tickets for this?

those prizes sound like raffle-type draws as opposed to actual prizes for races

All the draws are free to enter.  We will distribute the ballots at the gate, as well as distribute through our sponsors and through newspaper inserts.
