Visions Of Gingerbread Danced In Their Heads

(Page 14)

By Clayton and Lainey
The first annual Gingerbread house competition at Stirr! was a huge success!!
First and foremost we want to thank all of the businesses that participated in the event, all of the effort that went into the houses was a true showcase of community spirit.
The participating businesses were Grillo’s Pizzeria, Pharmasave, ATB, Koop’s Auto Service, Diamond Willow Artisan Retreat, Bluerock Gallery, Ok Tire and Auto Service and Pop’s Barber Shop.
The only unfortunate part of this event is not being able to choose them all for our prize basket. I may sound like a bit of a broken record but I’ll say it again, the participation was amazing!
We would also like to thank all of the people who braved the cold and trekked throughout the streets of Black Diamond to enjoy the festivities and treats!
I’m going to add this line in to delay the excitement of learning who won ……..
After counting and double counting (ok, we didn’t double count) a total of 427 ballots, by a very narrow margin the winner is……Pharmasave!
Great job Raven and all the gang at Pharmasave! Jason and Deirdre really do have a great team!
If you want to see the gingerbread houses in person you can go to the businesses as they will have them on display for a few weeks. Or check out our Facebook page which has some more photo’s.
We’re already getting excited for next years competition!
