Jackpot: The \u201cJackpot\u201d shall be the total proceeds from Raffle tickets sold for that drawing (\u201cRaffle Tickets\u201d). The amount of the Jackpot will be tracked by the System, and the continuously updated amount will be publicly posted at Prospera Arena and online, where available, and, if applicable, announced periodically inside the facility during the Raffle.<\/p>\n
Allocation of Proceeds: Each Raffle winner will receive a prize equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Jackpot for the event. The other fifty percent (50%) of the Jackpot will benefit the designated charity for the event less any applicable administrative costs. In the event of a bonus, the winner will receive the fifty percent of the event jackpot plus the full amount of the bonus. If applicable, these draws would take place at Kelowna Rockets home games during the 2026\/2027 Kelowna Rockets regular season.<\/p>\n

The draw will occur as close as possible to the first break in gameplay at the beginning of the third (3rd) period (the \u201cPurchase Period\u201d). If the System experiences any technical difficulties, or if the purchase period is suspended or cut short due to natural or unnatural causes of the hockey game or of the facility, KMHA reserves the right in its sole discretion to cancel or suspend the Raffle until the problem can be remedied.

Selection of Winner: Upon the conclusion of the Purchase Period, KMHA will use the System to randomly generate one winning ticket number from among the numbers associated with the purchased tickets. The Raffle will be conducted by a Draw Administrator and will be supervised by a KMHA Board Member. Any decisions by the Draw Administrator and\/or the KMHA Board Member shall be final and binding.
