Cashell won a 1990 Toyota donated to the Boys & Girls Club of Western Nevada for their benefit raffle. The drawing was held last week at the Pinon Plaza.

"I don't remember ever winning something like that," the former Nevada lieutenant governor said.

Cashell said he'll keep the vehicle at the urging of family members, but will donate a new Toyota car to the club for another fund-raiser this summer.

He said he bought from $300 to $400 worth of tickets in the raffle to benefit the club, not himself.

"Every time I go to a function that has a raffle, I buy a handful of tickets. You do that to help a good cause, not so much to win anything," he said.

Club officials praised Cashell's planned donation, saying it would generate interest in the Aug. 26 fund-raiser.
