Thank you again to everyone who put up pink lights and helped to create the magical amazing pink effect of total awesomeness!
Many people in the community took notice of our efforts, including the developer’s marketing guru, Bob Rubenkonig, who sent us the following message:
“… thanks again for everything you and everyone from the live-aboard community at Gangplank did to ensure the sucess of the festival — the light up was amazing! I can’t even imagine what you all will pull off next year for the 100th Anniversary event.”
I’ll post the results on our Facebook, Twitter, and Blog sites. You can also leave comments for the winners on the Picasa Album.
And Now … THE GRAND PRIZE WINNER of THE NATIONAL CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL PINK LIGHT CONTEST IS:
