Public Advisory: Exit Date Approved for Chase the Ace Draw

Service NL has approved an exit strategy proposal from the organizers of the St. Kevin’s Parish Chase the Ace lottery which includes an exit date of August 30, 2017.

Under Service NL’s Best Practices for Chase the Ace lotteries the holder of a licence may execute an exit strategy to end the lottery, upon approval from the Consumer Affairs Division.

Should the St. Kevin’s Parish Chase the Ace lottery not end by regular means (drawing of the ace of spades) on Wednesday, August 23, the final draw will be held on Wednesday, August 30.

Further details regarding the exit strategy are being finalized. Should this strategy be required, details regarding the rules of the final draw will be announced following the August 23 draw.
