Peterborough's Dragon Boat Festival 2011 Is This Weekend

/

Little Lake and Del Crary Park will be a busy spot this weekend as Peterborough's Dragon Boat Festival gets underway, with opening ceremonies taking place Friday evening at 7 p.m. and the races getting underway first thing Saturday morning. With funds raised this year for PRHC's Breast Assessment Centre, the hope is that they will reach the $2,000,000 mark since the festival first began in 2001. Come on out and support our paddlers!  (Click here for pictures from last year's event.)

The $5 Million Lottery Winner Claimed Her Ticket Today In Peterborough (And We Have The Pictures)

/

[UPDATE: June 6, 8:56 a.m. -- the OLG spokeswoman tells the Examiner they won't know the winner's name(s) until they claim the big prize in Toronto.]

We were tipped off by a reader Laura Hinckley, who happened to be at Shopper's Drug Mart on Charlotte St. this morning when a woman came in to claim her $5 million dollar ticket in Friday's Lotto Max. Here is pictures of the winner snapped by Laura—she didn't get the winner's name—and pictures of the Shopper's team who rang through the winning ticket.
