Chase the Ace

WEDC started a fundraiser: Chase the Ace lottery. Chase the Ace-style lottery is a kind of progressive raffle where the jackpot continues to grow over time.

In Chase the Ace there are 2 chances to win at week’s events that are held: the initial ticket draw and the jackpot game.

In the initial ticket draw, a winning ticket is pulled and the holder of the winning ticket takes 20 % of the week’s ticket sales while 30% is reserved for a building jackpot and the remaining 50% is retained by the WEDC (fund

goes to community events, scholarships and Economic Development projects). The initial draw winner then plays the jackpot game by choosing a playing card from a card deck. If the initial winner draws the Ace of Spades, he/she also wins the jackpot.

If he/she doesn’t draw the winning card, the card he/she chose is destroyed and the remaining cards are secured until the next event. The jackpot can continue to grow over several events until someone pulls the winning card (Ace of Spades).

There is a maximum of 52 draws and a maximum of 52 cards permitted for use.
