We have a winner! The 3 of Hearts was selected and Week #3 has officially begun!
Karan Brett of Wasaga Beach is taking home $544 for her Week #2 Draw win! The progressive jackpot is now sitting at an estimated $1,580 and will continue to grow as tickets are sold! Funds raised will support the purchase of an MRI machine at Owen Sound Regional Hospital.
“This lottery is making headlines in the Meaford area as the excitement ramps up”, said Jennifer Wright, Executive Director of Meaford Hospital Foundation, immediately following the Week #2 Draw. “Thanks to everyone who has purchased tickets. Your support will contribute to the purchase of a new MRI system at Owen Sound Regional Hospital.”
In the Owen Sound Regional Hospital Foundation office, there are now 50 playing cards individually sealed in manila envelopes on display. These envelopes are numbered from 1 through 52, with numbers 16 and 42 no longer in play. Nobody knows which envelope contains the Ace of Spades – until the lucky winner catches it!
The MRI in the Owen Sound Regional Hospital is used over 10,000 times per year on patients from across Grey and Bruce to diagnose a range of medical conditions. Tests done with the next generation of MRI technology will be faster, quieter and more comfortable for patients, and will provide physicians with higher quality images to aid in more accurate diagnoses.
Catch the Ace tickets can be purchased at the following hospital foundation offices: Owen Sound, Meaford, Wiarton, Southampton, and Markdale during posted hours.
