PEATMOSS Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Who won da prizes??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iambjm Posted April 24, 2009 Author Share Posted April 24, 2009 If I remember right the $1000 prize was won by a person from Bowlus MN, the $500 was won by a gal who is a neighbor of mine, the $250 prize was won by a guy from Shakopee. The auger was won by a woman from Grand Rapids whose husband had just had open heart surgery the day before. I don't think that it would be right to list names on the forum. We also gave away a lot of smaller prizes and some people got some very nice bargains on our silent auction. There is going to be another one in the fall and we are already working on some great prizes for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
