Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on December 4, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 6 people
  • Final notes:
    This was very hard to judge….so many that touched my heart, and deserve a higher trophy than I can give….
    A lot of time and effort went into the Gold choice - and it made me laugh, after my initial shock….lol….and so much truth in it. The others all touched me and my thoughts/prayers/best wishes go out to everyone.
    Thank you all.
