We are pleased to announce we have come up with the winners to our first-ever story contest! All the entries were more than worthy, each describing a variety of experiences. We certainly appreciate all of those who contributed. Each of our sales and administration team (and their spouses) read each of the entries. Through much discussion and debate, we have come up with 3 winners. There were at least 6 or 7 entries that were in the running and we had a difficult time picking the top 3. Over the next week, we will be sending out our 3 winning entries by email, for all of you to read. Without much further ado, our contest winners are as follows: First Prize - Karen Kachra - "I was a Belize virgin heading for Paradise Islands. Yes, this is a love story" Second Prize - Gary Fulmore - "A Second Honeymoon Adventure" Third Prize - Sophia Meulenberg - "Island 911" Special Mention - John Hutchinson - "The Artist" & "Lost At Sea" We will be posting the three winning entries in separate entries.
