For those who dared to dream and won: Dare to Dream Lottery winners announced
The 12th annual Dare to Dream Lotto was another success for the Mossbank and District Parks and Recreation Board. Raising their goal of almost $40,000, the town of Mossbank will be able to revamp their local hockey arena with new boards and glass. Brian Howe, the event co-ordinator says that this year’s lotto went well. “It was a little harder because the economy is a little weaker, but overall it went really well. People just want to help out the community and this is one way they can do that.”
The draws took place on June 9th at the Bent Nail Cafe in Mossbank. The winners of the five $1000 draws were Linda Van Damme of Imperial, Don Crook of Moose Jaw, Lloyd Wolfe of Balgonie, Kathy Kennedy of Moose Jaw, and Gail Domes of Assiniboia. Denise Duchek of Atwater and Fred Bell of Meadow Lake were the winners of the 2 $500 SCE Gift Certificates. The $500 Bourassa Gift Certificate was won by Scott Manske of Coronach. The $500 Southland Coop Gift Certificate was won by Dun- can Green of Mossbank and the $500 Young’s Equipment Gift Certificate went to Gale Toews of Moose Jaw. The 50/50 draw winners were Francis and Clara Klein of Odessa. The lucky Grand Prize winner was Dale Nagel of Mossbank and he chose the cash prize of $50,000.
Howe wants to thank everyone involved. “We want to say a big thank you to everyone that bought tickets and to all our sponsors and volunteers. Without them, it just wouldn’t work.” The Mossbank and District Parks and Recreation board has already begun planning for the 13th Annual Dare to Dream Lotto. “We are excited about next year and we are already planning new ideas.”
