OTTAWA, ON, September 14, 2017 — Fall is almost here, and with that comes a slew of lotteries emerging from hibernation. Back for another year is the CHEO Dream of a Lifetime Lottery, with its 2017 edition. This year brings yet another stellar Grand Prize home to be won, cars, cash, vacations, tickets, and much, much more.
The big catch this year is the Grand Prize Minto Dream Home, valued at a whopping $1,799,213. Dubbed the “Red Maple”, this dream home built by Minto has been built in a contemporary Canadian theme to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Canadian Confederation. The gorgeous 5,392 square foot home features vaulted ceilings in its great room, a perfect spot for the family to unwind in the downstairs rec room, and a place for the adults to relax in the loft space nestled above the second floor. This house is a palatable combination of design concepts from all over Canada, drawing inspiration from the unmistakably iconic yellow, white, black, red, and green of Hudson’s Bay’s official colours. Tradition meets modernity with splashes of design, including state-of-the-art appliances and Douglas Fir beams and reclaimed hardwood from the Ottawa river. Included in this grandest of prizes is a 2018 Toyota Tacoma 4×4 Double Cab (or $42,000 cash if you don’t want to new wheels), $100,000 Cash, House Cleaning for a Year from Molly Maid (worth $8,700), Groceries for a Year from Farm Boy ($5,000), Moving services from Fred Guy and Storage ($5,000), and Legal Services from Mann Lawyers ($1,800).
The Hurry Up to the Grey Cup will award five winners with four packs of tickets to the 105th Grey Cup in Ottawa, and one hundred early buyers will win a pair of tickets to the final Ottawa Redblacks home game ($105 value each).
The Early Bird Prize is a doozy, featuring a 2017 Searay SPX 190 with trailer (worth $ 53,110 or take $42,000 cash), 2018 RAM 1500 ST Quad Cab 4×4 (worth $43,053, or take $36,000 cash), $10,000 Cabela’s Gift Card, AND a trip for 2 to the Barcelo Maya Colonial, Riviera Maya, Mexico. Now that’s a prize to brag about.
Not to be outdone, there is also a Second Prize and a Third Prize, both of equal caliber to the Early Bird. See our reference page on the 2017 CHEO Dream of a Lifetime Lottery for full prize details.
There is also a 50/50 that can be added to your main lottery ticket, giving you the chance to walk away with half of the jackpot. Last year’s winner took home $539,657!
The first deadline to purchase tickets is for the Hurry Up to the Grey Cup deadline, at Midnight, Friday, September 22.
