Terrace, B.C. resident wins a $10,000 Marlin Travel voucher to travel anywhere in Canada

High River, AB - Western Financial Group (Western) congratulates Mark Cleveland of Terrace, British Columbia, on winning the Insurance Health Check grand prize – a $10,000 Ultimate Canadian Adventure!

The campaign encouraged people to visit a Western brokerage to have their insurance policies reviewed for the right coverage at the best value. Each quote was entered for a chance to win a $10,000 Marlin Travel voucher to travel anywhere in Canada. Over 19,000 entries were received during the contest period which ran from September 2015 through December 2015.

“We are thrilled to announce the winner of the Insurance Health Check campaign at Western,” said Executive Vice President of Western’s Brokerage Network, Joe Sirianni. “The Insurance Health Check campaign is an important initiative as it provides people with a great opportunity to have their insurance coverage reviewed - ensuring they have the right coverage for the things that matter the most to them. At the same time, they are entered to win this amazing prize. Everyone at Western extends huge congratulations to Mark and his family, and thanks all our customers for choosing Western for their insurance needs.”

Cleveland said he and his family are excited to have won and are still deciding where to go with the $10,000 voucher. They have a few ideas that include visiting family in Ontario, braving a couple’s “Tough Mudder” race in Whistler, and exploring Newfoundland.

“It’s hard to believe we won,” said Cleveland. “Everyone in our family is pretty excited about it. My wife and I have a few ideas of how we will spend the voucher, but we are still deciding.”

“It is wonderful that someone from Terrace won this awesome prize,” said Vivian Raposo, Manager of Western’s Terrace brokerage. “We are extremely excited that Mark and his family will be able to use the voucher to travel wherever they want in Canada. We are all proud to live and work in Terrace, and we are thrilled that a local customer will be able to use the voucher for many great experiences with his family.”
