delottery.com OFFERS 2 NEW WAYS TO CHECK WINNING NUMBERS

DOVER, DE - Two new options for getting Delaware Lottery winning number information are now available at delottery.com. Animated drawings can be viewed at the site by clicking on "View Drawings" from the home page, and players can sign up to receive winning numbers for all drawing games via e-mail on a daily or weekly basis.

According to Deputy Director of Marketing Brian Peters, the Lottery is always looking for ways to harness emerging technologies in order to provide players and other interested parties with the information they want-in the format in which they want it. "Both of these new features provide added value to our players," he said. "With the on-line animated drawings, they have a chance to actually see the most recent drawings - a more exciting alternative to the winning numbers lists we also offer. E-mail notification adds the convenience of having winning numbers delivered straight to our players' in-boxes, so they don't have to go looking for them."

Winning number information is printed in The News Journal and Delaware State News and aired by many television and radio stations in the region during their newscasts. The Player Information Line (800-338-6200 in Delaware, 302-736-1436 out of state) provides this information by telephone; it also is available at all Delaware Lottery Retailer locations.

Since the start of operations in 1975, the Delaware Lottery has contributed more than $1.3 billion to the state's General Fund to help finance needed state services that benefit everyone in Delaware. The Lottery offers a variety of games: POWERBALL®, LOTTO, PLAY 3, PLAY 4, and assorted Instant Games. More information is available at delottery.com.
