$419,000 — and 27 Envelopes Left

Celebrating the 300th Catch the Ace draw - Cindy Anthony, MPP Stephane Sarrazin, Mayor Mike Tarnowski and Doug Anthony
RUSSELL, ONTARIO, October 8, 2026 — The estimated jackpot has climbed to $419,000 — and this Sunday, someone takes home an estimated $14,000 weekly prize no matter what card their envelope hides.

Last Sunday marked a milestone: the 300th Catch the Ace draw, celebrated with MPP Stéphane Sarrazin and Russell Mayor Mike Tarnowski joining the Kin Club volunteers for the occasion (pictured above with Cindy and Doug Anthony).

Twenty-five Sunday draws into the eighth edition of Catch the Ace, just 27 envelopes remain in play — and every week the Ace stays hidden, the odds of finding it get a little better.

The lottery is run entirely by volunteers, and the vast majority of every dollar raised stays close to home — supporting hospitals, food banks, youth programs, mental-health initiatives and dozens of other local causes across Prescott-Russell and the Ottawa region. More than $555,000 has already been raised for local charities this round alone — pushing the all-time total past $8.2 million.

Buy Tickets


Why It Works

The quiet magic of Catch the Ace is that everyone wins something. Half of every ticket goes straight to local charities; the rest builds the weekly prize and the ever-growing jackpot. So whether or not your envelope hides the Ace, your $10 is already doing good somewhere close to home.

The Kin Club of Russell has been supporting Eastern Ontario causes for decades — from CHEO and local hospitals to food banks, Special Olympics and neighbourhood projects. See the charities supported here.


How to Play

Buy a ticket and choose an envelope number from the 27 still in play. If your ticket is drawn, you win that week’s weekly prize. Your chosen envelope is then opened — and if it holds the Ace of Spades, you also take home the progressive jackpot. Each week the Ace stays hidden, another envelope is retired and the odds of finding it get a little better.

Tickets: $10 each, online at russellkincta.ca or at retail locations (Ontario only)
Online ticket deadline: Saturday, October 10 at 10:00 PM ET
Live draw: Sunday, October 11 at 3:15 PM ET

Corvette or $100,000 Cash?

For Corvette enthusiasts, the 2027 model brings something new to the table.

The 2027 Corvette Stingray features the new LS6 V8 producing 535 horsepower, making it the most powerful standard engine ever offered in a Corvette.
