Catch the Ace Rules of Play

The Royal Canadian Legion Dryden Branch #63 has retained the services of BUMP to complete all draws electronically.  BUMP is an AGCO approved company for providing electronic raffles.

Catch the Ace Raffle consists of 1 (one) weekly raffle, with two potential outcomes:

  1. A weekly Catch the Ace Consolation prize consisting of 20% (twenty) of gross weekly sales.
  2. The Progressive Catch the Ace prize consisting of 30% (thirty) of gross weekly sales plus any carry-over of the previous weeks’ Catch the Ace Raffle jackpot.

Should the digital envelope contain the designated winning card (Ace of Spades), the winner will be awarded both, the Catch the Ace Progressive Pot prize and the Weekly Consolation Pot prize.  The draw is then concluded.

Should the envelope not contain the designated winning card (Ace of Spades):

  1. The card and envelope number are removed from being a valid selection from future Weekly Raffles.
  2. The current Weekly Raffle is complete and the Consolation prize will be awarded to the valid ticket holder upon claim and confirmation.
  3. A new Weekly Raffle shall commence with the Catch the Ace Raffle Progressive Jackpot carrying over.

The winning Catch the Ace card is the Ace of Spades.

Ticket Purchase

All tickets will be sold through the BUMP, system and official “Royal Canadian Legion Dryden Branch #63 Catch the Ace” website: www.drydenlegioncatchtheace.ca 

All purchasers must provide an email address, telephone number and use a valid credit card to complete the purchase of their tickets.  You are responsible for entering your contact information in accurately.

Tickets can only be issued to the owner of the credit card.  There is one name per ticket and the person named must claim the prize.

Tickets will be available immediately following the previous Weekly draw.

Each purchaser will select a single virtual envelope number from the remaining unopened envelopes available at the time of purchase. This shall identify the purchaser’s selected envelope to be opened should their Weekly Raffle ticket number be selected. The selected envelope will be associated with all tickets included in the ticket order.  Multiple envelopes may not be selected within a single ticket order.

Each envelope contains a hidden playing card from a standard 52 (fifty-two) card deck.  The number of envelopes available for selection begins with 52 (fifty-two) and declines by 1 (one) each week that the envelope selected by the Weekly prize winner reveals a playing card other than the Ace of Spades.

After purchase, purchasers will be provided a digital receipt with their registered Weekly Raffle numbers from BUMP’s Random Number Generator (“RNG”) system.  A digital receipt shall identify the envelope number selected by the purchaser during the checkout process.  If tickets are purchased on the same day of the draw and there are errors in the information, you may not receive your tickets until after the draw.

No specific numbers can be given, as ticket numbers are generated at random.

The Weekly Raffle winning ticket number will be selected by the RNG system from all raffle numbers sold for that Weekly Raffle.

All tickets will be delivered via email. It is the responsibility of the ticket purchaser to ensure that they receive and retain their ticket(s).

If you have not received your ticket(s) via email when purchasing online, please contact the customer service line at ace@agh-fvm.com or 613-256-2514 ext. 2610.
