Our raffle winner for 2025 was drawn at Fall Fair on September 7. The prize was shipped to the winner Ian Nugent in Victoria BC. Dave Florence presented a cheque of over $1100 to Forestry Museum manager Paul Higgins and Assistant Curator Ava Hansen on September 12. This was 50% of the raffle proceeds
