On Saturday, May 30th the draw was made for the 2009 Pontiac G3 Podium Edition donated by Pontiac GMC Canada to Alpine Saskatchewan as part of the sponsorship provided through Alpine Canada. The draw was made at Capital Pontiac in Regina by 'Trapper' - a radio personality providing a radio spot for the day at the dealership.
The winner was Lisa Daradich of Cupar, Saskatchewan with a ticket sold to them through the Qu'Appelle Valley Ski Club (QVSC). Although Lisa was sceptical and thought the voice and email messages notifying her of her win were a hoax, she did some background checking and became very excited to hear the news was legitimate (she hadn't won a prize like this before). Lisa also said that it was great timing because their current vehicle was in need of replacing. The keys were handed over by Terry Hooper - President of Alpine Saskatchewan - to Lisa on Monday, June 1st.
In total there were approximately 4,800 tickets sold from November through May 30th. Once the accounting is settled, the 50% net revenue clubs' share will be forwarded.
