DRYDEN — Tracy Groves wrote that she's still "waiting to wake up and realize it's all just a dream."
She posted the message on social media after getting a phone call informing her she had won the grand prize in the Dryden Regional Health Services Foundation's monthly 50/50.
Groves' windfall from the January draw is $161,915.
"No way! Are you kidding me?" she had asked earlier upon hearing the news from Brad Coles, chair of the foundation's board. "Whoa. Thank you so much. You just made my week."
Thunder Bay-area residents have won the last few monthly grand prizes in the DRHSF's fundraiser.
Proceeds from the draw go toward the purchase of equipment for the Dryden Regional Health Centre.
