Without Further Ado……

 

There are only 9 prizes. We will give them out until we run out!!

Here’s how this works. Winners are listed in the order that their names were drawn. Each person will be able to choose the prize they like until we reach the last person who gets the last prize. But being last is never as bad as it seems around here! The one who gets “stuck” with the final prize gets something special added! (Shhhhh! I can’t reveal everything!) I will email each of you individually giving you the opportunity to choose your prize, then list which prizes are taken when I notify the next person, and so on and so on. You get the idea.


Regardless if your name was picked, in my eyes you are all winners and I thank each and everyone of you for donating and participating in this endeavor!

The Winners Are……….

Tracy Anderson
Kris Monstad
Kelly Shermer
Lucia Tedesco
Melanie Gibbons
Kim Kovach
