A Manotick man has found the ace of spades in the Catch the Ace lottery fundraiser for the Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital Foundation, in partnership with Capt. A. Roy Brown Branch 192 of the Royal Canadian Legion
The hospital foundation says the ace was found on week 27 of the lottery fundraiser. The winner, Steven T. of Manotick, is taking home $88,715.
'This lottery is truly a community celebration where everyone benefits,' said Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital Foundation executive director Robyn Arseneau, in a news release. 'Every ticket purchased helps us provide the very best care to patients in the areas our hospital serves and supports the programs that make Carleton Place such a wonderful place to live. Congratulations to Steven and thank you to everyone who played a part in this year's Catch the Ace.'
The fundraiser will return in September.
'The energy and enthusiasm in our Legion Hall each week has been incredible,' said Kevin Francis, President of Capt. A. Roy Brown, Branch 192. 'We are deeply thankful for the community's support, which allows us to give back in so many meaningful ways. We can't wait to welcome everyone back in September for another round of fun, fundraising, and community spirit.'
The lottery has so far raised $400,000 to support services at the Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital and programs at the Legion.
