Brett Rudderham, pictured here with his girlfriend Robyn Chaperon and 19-month-old Lennon Rudderham, was the winner of $213,681.50 in Sunday's Glace Bay Minor Hockey draw. 

Earlier in the day there was a steady stream of people dropping of tickets at the Miners Forum, hoping to cash-in. 

The ticket drum was nearly full as the draw was made just after 3:00pm. 

Cape Breton Regional Police Chief Robert Walsh pulled the winning ticket from the drum in what proved to be the largest jackpot ever in the draw's history. 

Rudderham, who played minor hockey in Glace Bay, says he plans to use some of the money on purchasing his first ever house.

Brett's mother Shauna Rudderham and grandmother Betty Matheson stopped by the Glace Bay Minor Hockey office on Monday to accept the cheque on his behalf. 

Brett purchased the winning ticket from his goddaughter Kinsley Boutilier. 

Like elves in Santa's workshop, volunteers were busy collecting money, and ticket stubs, for Glace Bay Minor Hockey’s 50/50 draw on Sunday.

Meanwhile, many who were forking it over had visions of dollar signs dancing in their heads.

A message from the Cape Breton Regional Hospital Foundation. 

?THANK YOU Glace Bay Miners U15 A team?

These young athletes put on their 'philanthropist hats', and hosted their own 'Pink at the Rink' game. 

Collecting donations at the door, holding a snack bar and a 50/50, they raised $700 for cancer care, here at home! 

Their efforts will support the more than 45,000 patient-visits made annually to the Cape Breton Cancer Centre. 

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, dedication, and spirit! 

All GBMH ice at the Glace Bay Miners Forum From Thursday Dec 7th to Sunday Dec 10th is cancelled due to the Panther Classic tournament taking place
