It was a great pleasure to welcome the winners of the 2nd
annual Christmas Market raffle on the premises of the German Canadian
Chamber of Commerce on University Street in Toronto. If you recall there was
a raffle held on Nathan Philip Square and we finally had the opportunity to
give away the wonderful prizes.
The first prize was a trip for two to Germany with Lufthansa
Airlines and a two-night stay at the Four Seasons Hotel Berlin, as well as
First Class Railway Passes compliments of the German National Tourist
Office. Karen Wright of Scarborough won this grand prize. Congratulations!
There
were of course many other fabulous prizes. Miele had donated one of their
famous dishwashers; there were Maple Leaf Tickets in the Gold Section from
Dale and Lessmann, a complimentary rip to the Thousand Islands from Mokassin
Tours, Pizza for one year from Pizza-Pizza; a gift certificate of $100 from
Dennison’s Brewing Co. & Restaurant. Reha Enterprises had donated a $75.00
gift basket of Herbacin products, and Brandt meats also donated a gift
certificate for $50.00.
With the give away of the prizes the last act of the 2nd
annual Christmas Market had come to an end. The organizers, including
myself, wish to thank all those who supported our efforts and hope that
everyone will continue to do so. The Christmas Market is a growing
proposition and we are all looking forward to another one next Christmas
time.
