The Kemptville Lions Club have been busy organizing a "Trip of the Month Club" to raise funds to help meet the needs of our community. This lottery consists of 12 prizes, of which two are cash prizes, one travel voucher, and nine are suggested vacation destinations arranged by Gravitate Travel, here in Kemptville. All trips are for two and may be exchanged, for full value, for a destination of your choice at time of booking. Each ticket remains in the drum for the full 12 draws, so, even if you win, you can still win again. Only 300 tickets will be sold. You have one year to plan for and enjoy a vacation. All itineraries can be viewed on our website. To purchase your ticket before they're gone, please contact us by sending a message on our page "Kemptville Lions Club" or via our email address at [email protected] and we will have a member reach out to you. Tickets are $150.00. Currently, we accept cash or cheque and are working on accepting e-transfers (hopefully will be ready within 10 days of this post, but we will update that info on our page.

All proceeds are distributed as required by government regulation to qualified charitable organizations that depend on our support to provide services to the less fortunate in our community. Your support is very much appreciated.
