These rules are filed with the AGCO as a condition of our raffle licence. If anything here ever conflicts with the licence itself, the licence wins.
1. Licence and operator
The Winners GRS 50/50 raffle is operated by Bluewater Gymnastics Club Sarnia at 1540 Lottie Neely Park Rd, Sarnia, ON N7T 7H4, Canada, under raffle licence RAF1493441 issued by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). The licence is valid from Aug. 01, 2025 to June 30, 2026.

- Physically located within the Province of Ontario at the time of purchase;
- Not a member of the board of Bluewater Gymnastics Club Sarnia directly involved in conducting the draw.
3. Ticket sales
Tickets are sold online through this website. Sales close one (1) hour before each scheduled draw. All sales are final once the order is confirmed. Payment is processed by a PCI-compliant payment provider; we do not store full card numbers.
Sales stop one hour before the draw — there's no grace period. Leave yourself a little time so a slow checkout never costs you a ticket.

The winner is contacted directly using the email and phone number provided at the time of purchase. To claim the prize, the winner must confirm identity with valid government-issued photo ID and the original ticket number. Prizes are paid by cheque or electronic bank transfer within seven (7) business days of completed verification.
6. Unclaimed prizes
If a prize is not claimed within sixty (60) days of the draw, it will be held in trust by the operator and disbursed in accordance with AGCO requirements. Reasonable efforts will be made to contact the winner via the contact details on the ticket.
7. Cancellation and refunds
In the event a draw is cancelled, full refunds will be issued automatically to the payment method used at purchase, within fourteen (14) business days of the cancellation announcement.
8. Privacy
Personal information collected during ticket purchase is used solely to fulfil the order, contact the winner, and meet regulatory reporting obligations. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
