Celebrating 70 Years of Supporting Local Charities 
 
For 70 years, buying a ticket to the Stampede Lotteries has offered the opportunity to win incredible prizes each July. But more than that, it has offered hope and support to charities within the community. In the 1950s, the first prizes were flashy cars, quickly followed by the very first Dream Home, soon to become the Rotary Dream Home, through the involvement of the Rotary Club of Calgary South (now the Rotary Club of Calgary at Stampede Park). It was a six-room, two-car garage bungalow, valued at $35,000. Ticket buyers came in droves, hoping to win the modern home or one of the extravagant vehicles in a draw that took place in front of the packed Grandstand. And just as the value of the prizing grew each year, so did the support of local charities.  
 
With more than 100 prizes valued at more than $2.2 million, the Calgary Stampede Lotteries is bigger and better than ever in 2021. It includes the most valuable prize ever offered, the Rotary Dream Home by Homes by Avi, with a bonus of $100,000 cash. Tickets are now on sale to win the Dream Home as well as the new Kinsmen Lottery, which is now worth more than a million dollars. It features 8 grand prizes, including a truck & fifth wheel package valued at more than $230,000, and a wide assortment of other big-ticket items including a cash prize of $100,000. There are also more than 50 additional prize packages to win, plus the largest ever Early Bird prize, a ready-to-go-anywhere class B motor coach valued at nearly $155,000.
