As fair season winds down, the agricultural societies of Cobden, Renfrew, and Arnprior had one last call to make to a lucky resident.
Bryce Doran has been declared the winner of the Renfrew County Fair Jackpot 50/50 draw, a fundraising raffle that drew attention from fairgoers in all three communities and people across the Ottawa Valley over the past month.
The draw brought in a total of $18,365 from ticket sales, with Doran walking away with $9182.50 and the rest supporting programming and grounds maintenance for the Renfrew, Cobden, and Arnprior fairs.
Speaking with our newsroom previously, Cobden Agricultural Society president Meredith Mulligan says all three events share a similar goal of bringing more attention to the region’s agricultural sector.
