What happens when creative minds from seven Camrose service clubs get together and brainstorming kicks into high gear? Well, all of a sudden, there’s a new game in town, starting July 15 – a progressive raffle called Chase the Ace. Tickets can be purchased individually, or in lots of up to 100, in a single transaction. One name will be drawn bi-weekly from amongst those who have purchased tickets in the two-week period. That person immediately wins 20 percent of that two-week ticket sales proceeds. That individual then has one opportunity to correctly “find” the Ace of Spades from amongst a 52-card deck of shuffled, over-turned cards. Should that occur, this person will be rewarded with an additional 20 percent of total proceeds. If the pick doesn’t pan out, this money will accumulate into the following draw period and the card drawn is removed from play. Twice monthly, a chosen local charity will benefit by receiving 20 percent of total ticket sales during that period. The raffle’s major beneficiary will be Hospice Society of Camrose and District. Hospice will earn a tidy 20 percent of total ticket proceeds during the life of the contest. For more information, email CamSvcClubs@gmail.com.
