Prince George, B.C.- “I’m ecstatic” that’s how Brad Johnston  describes how he feels about winning the first Early  Bird prize in the Hospice  Society’s Dream Home Lottery.

Johnston’s ticket was drawn last Friday night,  and today,  he was  at Cycle North in Prince George, to pick up his new Polaris  Sportsman 570 EFI and Polaris ATV Trailer.  The  prize package  is valued at  $9677.00 and was donated by  Cycle North in Prince George.

Johnston was all smiles as he  sat  on his new toy “To  win the  first one ( prize) especially is amazing.  I’ve never really won anything in my life before.”

Johnston is an off-roader, but doesn’t know  if he will get to ride this new machine “My boy’s  actually called first dibs on this, so I’m going to have to fight him for it.”

The Hospice Dream Home Lottery offers  three more early bird prizes,  including  a 10 day stay  at a special resort in Spain,  a $2,000 gift card from Canadian Tire , and bikes  and helmets from Koops Bikes and a one week stay  at Mount Washington’s Bear Mountain Lodge.

Of course the  BIG prize is the  dream home itself,   which is  appraised at $480 thousand dollars.   Only 8999 tickets are being sold.
