 We have a winner!
Congratulations to Sheryl in Illinois for being the lucky winner of the 2007 Alaska Getaway Giveaway. Sheryl and her daughter Amanda will be flown to Anchorage, Alaska from the nearest airport wherever Alaska Airlines flies.
The lucky winner and her guest will be staying at the Inlet Tower Hotel in downtown Anchorage just in time to get involved in a few Fur Rendezvous events and watch the ceremonial start of the Iditarod!
Additional gifts will be provided by Mix Grill and Fur Rondy, including a free sample of the new Fur Rondy Brew by Midnight Sun Brewing Co.
Stay tuned! We will be following Sheryl and Amanda in Anchorage as they
enjoy wintertime in Alaska, the sights and sounds of Anchorage and the
start of the 2007 Iditarod.
About Sheryl
We asked Sheryl to tell us a little about herself. Here is what she told us:
"I am a retired teacher (taught for 34 years) and I always
did a unit on Alaska including having the students follow the sled race on the
internet.
Right now I am substitute teaching in a kindergarten
classroom and we are doing a unit on animals and people of Alaska. The children will be so excited that I am
actually going there and will be able to bring pictures and souvenirs back to
them. My substitute teaching ends Feb.
20 so this is perfect timing for me.
I
have 3 children, Amanda is a school psychologist, Brian a computer project
manager for the New York City school system and Jeff is pursuing a degree while
working part time. Going to Alaska is
one of my dreams. I clearly remember
when it became a state."
