Several area groups are benefiting from Lottery Cash Calendars sold by the local Knights of Columbus.  

Donations this year totaled $10,600.   

Officials say cheques have been presented to The Gathering Place, Nipissing Serenity Hospice, the North Bay Food Bank, the Capitol Centre and more.  

Knights of Columbus Council 12030 has been selling the calendars for 30 years, allowing those purchasing them to not only help local charities, but benefit from daily draws.  

2025 calendars are now on sale at the North Bay Mall.
