Marquette, MI – September 28, 2017 – We closed out summer and welcomed fall tonight at River Rock Lanes and Banquet Center for the $7,000 Storage Building of Your Dreams Giveaway party. Congratulations to Dennis Sippola from Ishpeming on being tonight’s big winner!
Premium Pole Buildings and Storage Sheds joined us for this giveaway as our major prize sponsor. Mike and TJ at Premium will be building Dennis his choice of a 10′ x 20′ or 12’x 16, Gambrel or Gable shed. Complete with all of the Premium fixings Dennis hopes to make the shed into a little workshop.
Starting the night around 6:30 we opened the doors to the banquet hall with Nancy and Amy manning the welcome table. Working hard to get everyone through the line quickly, guests picked up their finalist and door prize tickets and shuffled in to find a seat.
Once settled in, Adam Carpenter and Walt Lindala took the mics as emcees of the night. Thanking everyone for coming they introduced our sponsors for the evening and explained how the night would go. With introductions out of the way, it was time to give away some free stuff! We pulled ticket after ticket to give away door prizes like Sunny.FM 101.9 Station of the Year Mugs and golf ball sets from Four Seasons Small Engine.
Breaking for dinner, Ryan Ranguette released tables for a tasty meal from Mama Russo’s. Bringing their homemade salads, cudighi bites and lasagna, the staff served up a delicious meal. In between bites we handed out more cool gifts from our sponsors like Biolife bags and Cub Cadet hats!
Coming to the end of our night, it was time to draw our finalist tickets. Walt and Mike collected our seven finalists by drawing from the bucket. Each person came up and selected their station envelope hoping they’d chosen the big one. Major Discount delivered the countdown with all of our finalists tearing open the envelopes at once.
Dennis Sippola drew the lucky envelope tonight winning the $7,000 Storage Building of Your Dreams Giveaway. Nevertheless, none of our finalists went home empty handed. Liz Hangas received a $100 gift basket from Super One Foods with Mary Whales receiving another. Kevin Stank won a brand new socket wrench kit from Advance Auto Parts from. Brett Nance and Allision Coss went home with Gold Star Service Contracts from Swick Home Services with our last winner leaving with a STIHL leaf blower from Four Seasons.
