MANOR - Chris Light was this year’s winner of the Manor & RM #63 Fire Department’s Chase the Ace grand prize of $14,670.
Unable to personally attend the final drawing, Light was later presented with his cheque and expressed his thanks.
“I have been a regular buyer of these lottery tickets for many years and of course I am happy that I won. A big thank-you goes out to Karen Rowley, who was my proxy, and who selected the ace of spades.”
Treasurer Lucille Dunn spoke on behalf of the fire department.
“The 2022-23 Chase the Ace has again shown the tremendous support our fire department receives from Manor and surrounding communities,” said Dunn. “More than $20,000 was raised again this year.
“In the past much of these funds were used to upgrade the turnout gear for the team and the funds this year will go towards improving more of the department’s assets. It's such a good outcome for all involved.”
