Firefighters raffling motorcycle to benefit Spirit of the North

Prince George Firefighters are once again raising money for the Spirit of the North Healthcare Foundation through their annual Harley Davidson raffle.

This year’s top prize is a 2022 Harley-Davidson STREET BOB 114 H-D Large Cruiser, shown above.

“We have 6,000 tickets available, and we have a couple thousand tickets left,” said Mark Dorval, a Firefighter who is selling tickets at Vista Radio headquarters today (Thursday).

“We take cash, debit, credit – we will take your money, we will give you a ticket,” he said.

Spirit of the North will be using the money to purchase a Cardiac Care unit for the Hospital.

On their website, they said the unit includes “ECG Machines, Defibrillators, Vascular Dopplers, and Cardiac Ultrasound Units,” and more.

“This is a large undertaking that, once completed, will eventually see Northern residents receiving the cardiac care they require here, in Prince George, eliminating the travel and ensuring our friends, families, and communities have the very best in care,” they said.

The second place prize is a $500 Costco gift card, third will also get $250 to Costco.

Tickets are available to purchase at Vista Radio HQ on Ospika and Ferry, and at the Spirit of the North office.

They are also available online here.
