Auto Paint Giveaway:
Kelly's dad's employer donated a $250 gift certificate for paint products at their store. People could purchase a ticket and the winner had the choice oftaking the $250 gift certificate or getting $200 in cash. Kelly and I met up with Kelly's parents to do the drawingand then we called the winner. Congratulations to Rob Woodcox of Red Springs!Mr. Woodcox decide to take the $250 gift certificate for auto paint supplies. We were able to raiseover $800 with this fundraiser.

Thanks to our lovely assistant, Shawna Cox, that was willing to draw the name for us so we could not be accused of rigging the drawing. :)
