Flag is Down, Contest Over!

The block went through the ice and stopped the clock at 5:39 a.m. this morning, April 25, 2019! Committee members Larry Rossi and Diane Rossi viewed the clock and verified the time.We won't have a winner to announce for a while - once we find who won, there has to be ticket verification, the person(s) have to be contacted, and then we have to calculate the winnings. So check your ticket stubs, folks! You may be a winner!
     Typically, the mushy ice will be gone from all of the big pond within about three days - we should have sparkling blue water by the weekend! Hooray!!
