Photography Competition Winners    Treasure Hunt Winners

The Lilyholt Road Treasure Hunt was organised to raise more money for the Village Hall, I managed to raise a further £238.00 through selling squares on a grid, the competition was kindly sponsored by Greenvale. There were three top prizes:

• DAB Digital Radio - won by Doreen Guy (pictured left)

• DVD Player - won by J Coe

• Set of 5 Mobile House Phones - won by Lisa Beevor

There was a one in 6 chance of winning a prize and loads of people were lucky.

Thank you to everyone who purchased a square or more.
