A North Bay-area woman has won a quarter million dollars in the Instant Crossword Deluxe game. Kimberly Bester-Melanson of Trout Creek likes OLG’s crossword games and says she had to try this new version when it came out. Bester-Melanson started playing the ticket and saw she’d won something but wasn’t sure how much. She went back to the store where she bought the ticket and OLG called to confirm she’d won $250,000. Bester-Melanson plans to help her daughter pay off her student loan, she’s buying a new car for herself and helping her son pay off the truck he recently bought.
