Claude Beauregard was the jackpot winner on the November 23rd draw of the Kinsmen Chase the Ace Lottery.聽 Claude was not at Assiniboia鈥檚 121 Steakhouse to make the draw himself, however, Jordan from 121 Steakhouse drew the Ace of Spades for him. Claude received a cheque from the Kinsmen Club for $30701.00, plus 121 Steakhouse Lounge & Motel had thrown in $500.00 to start the pot, meaning, Beauregard took home a grand total of $32,201.00.
The Lottery started with the first draw on March 23, 2018. Each week a card was drawn from the deck. If the card wasn鈥檛 the Ace of Spades, the card was removed from the deck then destroyed. Only 17 cards remained in the deck when Jordan drew the Ace of Spades for Claude.
Congratulations to Claude on his win. The Assiniboia Kinsmen Club, along with 121 Steakhouse Lounge & Motel, would like to thank all who supported the lottery. The proceeds from this lottery will go towards Kin hall renovations and community organizations. The Assiniboia Kinsmen have started planning another Chase the Ace Lottery to start early next year.
