A school in Chester Grant is hoping a card game will help them replace some much needed equipment.
Forest Heights Community School has been holding a ‘Chase the Ace’ draw for several months.
Funds being raised will help replace bleachers and basketball standards and create a fitness centre.
Athletic Director, Devan Naugler, says it made sense to get the community involved.
“The school needs those things to be upgraded and since it is a community school, we decided to make it a community event.”
Naugler notes the bleachers and basketball standards haven’t been changed since the school was built 26 years ago.
The jackpot is over $2,800 with 30 cards left including the ace of spades.
The next draw is happening Thursday from 6:30-8pm at the school.
