FAQ's

What are my odds of winning?
GREAT! Only 5,000 tickets will be sold, so your $20 investment has at least a 1 in 33 chance for 1 of 150 golf related prizes
Can I buy a ticket online?
Sorry. Lottery rules won’t allow that, but you can order and pay by credit card toll free at 1-866-782-9231 or click here to print off the ticket application and mail or fax it to (905) 333-4732 with payment or credit card information. See our Buy Tickets page for full details.
Can I see the prizes before I buy?
None of the prizes will be available for viewing prior to the draw.
If I win, can I take cash instead of the prizes?
Sorry. You must take possession of the prizes as awarded.
I am a Rotarian – am I eligible to win?
Rotarians can purchase tickets but, members of the Rotary Club of Burlington Central and Lakeshore are not eligible to win
I am not an Ontario resident – am I eligible to win?
Sorry, you are not eligible. You are free to buy a ticket as a gift for someone who is an Ontario resident. According to the Ontario Lottery Commission rules this draw is for residents of Ontario only. You, as a resident of Ontario, could win a prize and gift it to your cousin in another province or state but you should check tax implications regarding capital gains first.
How many tickets can I buy?
As many as you want, but there are only 5,000 available so act fast!
How do I get my ticket?
All tickets are mailed to you about a week after we receive your ticket application and payment is processed, or after you call the toll free number to buy a ticket.
How do I know this is not a scam?
This lottery is registered with the Ontario Government (Lottery License No. M654465)
Why can’t you give a tax receipt if the money raised goes to charity?
Although The Rotary Clubs of Burlington Central and Lakeshore are registered charities, the purchase of a lottery ticket is not considered a donation.
Can I fill out the ticket application now, pay you and then tell you my address later?
It is Rotary’s responsibility to make sure that purchasers of lottery tickets can be contacted if they win, without this information you jeopardize your chances.
Can a group of people buy one ticket or more together?
Yes. It is wise however to consider drafting a legally binding agreement that states who will share in the winnings and how the winnings will be divided.
I bought a ticket but haven’t received it yet. Where is it?
All tickets are mailed to the address that you provide when you buy the ticket. If you have not received the ticket at that address after a full two weeks, here is what to do:

  • IF YOU PURCHASED YOUR TICKET OVER THE PHONE:
    • Call the toll free number and ask if payment has been processed and the ticket mailed.
  • IF YOU PURCHASED YOUR TICKET BY MAILING IN A COMPLETED TICKET APPLICATION FORM WITH PAYMENT:
    • Allow a bit of extra time for the two trips through the postal system.
    • Check your credit card statement if you paid by filling in the credit card information on the ticket application form.
    • Check your bank statement if you paid by cheque to see if payment has been made according to your records.

What does Rotary do?
“Service above self” is the long-standing philosophy of Rotary clubs around the world. Rotary is a service organization of approximately 1.2 million members across over 30,000 clubs around the world. Individual Rotary Clubs operate semi-autonomously from one another. Clubs raise money individually for local community projects and causes as well as participating along with other clubs around the world on larger initiatives. Rotarians are civic minded individuals who represent a cross section of their communities. Rotarians donate incredible time and effort to the community locally and the world at large. Our supported programs are successful and well respected around the globe.
Where do the proceeds of the Lottery go?

  • R.O.C.K.
  • Aroland Native Reserve
