One lucky winner went home with $2,766 ending the Winkler Arts and Culture Chase the Ace fundraiser.

After eight months Cheryl Fehr picked the Ace of Spades to win the pot.

WAC Executive Director Wendy Klassen explains their portion of the proceeds will help with operational and programming costs including art supplies, heating bills and facilitators.

From the total money raised in the fundraiser 20 percent was paid out to the ticket winner each week ($1,845 in total), 30 percent went into the accumulated jackpot which was won by Fehr this week ($2,766) and then 50 percent went to WAC. ($4,611)

Klassen notes they will be starting another Chase the Ace in the future and hope to see more residents try their luck.
