Congratulations to our very own Olivia Rutledge on winning this week's Catch the Ace!!! 😊

Congratulations to Olivia Rutledge of Creemore, our Week 15 winner, who took home a record $785! Olivia is our first winner from Creemore, and we love seeing our circle of supporters grow! She selected Envelope #20 and revealed the 8 of Spades, so the Ace of Spades is still hiding.

Now we're projecting a $17,000 combined prize for next Thursday's draw!

There's another goal we're excited about: Spud's $1,000 Christmas Challenge! Can we grow our weekly prizes to $1,000 by Christmas? Bigger weekly prizes would mean thousands of additional dollars for our three local charities! Every ticket helps support:

• Stevenson Memorial Hospital Foundation
• Matthews House Hospice Foundation
• Your Local Rotary Charitable Foundation

Help us keep the momentum going! Get your Week 16 tickets today.

Have you or someone you know been touched by grief? National Grief and Bereavement Day is on Tuesday, November 17th. Please join us for a community lunch to acknowledge this important day. 🦋

From the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association, this year's theme is Help Shine a Light on Grief Support in Canada. Grief touches everyone and every community, yet access to grief and bereavement support is uneven. Many people experience fragmented services and have limited understanding of what grief and bereavement support can provide.

"By raising awareness, sharing experiences, and advocating for stronger grief and bereavement supports, we can help build communities where no one faces grief alone and where compassionate care is available when and where it is needed." 💙💛

👉Don't miss out—please RSVP to Sharron by November 3rd to secure your spot! [email protected]

You don't have to face the holidays alone. 🦋
