Aced it!

The $30,000 jackpot winner of the Rotary Club of Fergus-Elora Catch the Ace draw on April 28 at Fergus Legion Branch 275 was John Fines of Fergus. All net profit from this lottery, expected to be more than $40,000, will be donated to Groves Hospital Foundation. A new Catch the Ace draw is starting on May 5, with weekly prizes and the prospect of winning an ever-increasing jackpot. Tickets are available at the Fergus Legion and draws are held there each Sunday at 3pm. From left are Bruce McLeish (draw coordinator), Ted Ecclestone (draw master), Jim Gibbons (committee chair), John Fines, Kathy Fines, Neil Dunsmore (draw master), Lori Arsenault (Groves Foundation executive director), Norm Manning (committee member), Ed Davis (Rotary Club president elect) and John Martin (Fergus Legion 1st vice president). “We thank the community for their past and anticipated future support,” said McLeish. The net proceeds of the second draw are to be split evenly between Groves hospital and Rotary’s local community projects.               Submitted photo
