WOW! 24 Years Between Entering & Winning!!

Posted on: December 7th, 2009 by carolyn

I just had to blog about this amazing story.

When Heidi Kay Werstler was 6-years-old, she entered the Message in a Bottle contest when her family was on vacation in Ocean City N.J.  Last week her entry was found and the city decided to honor her prize!  Heidi and her family won a stay in Ocean City for their First Night New Year’s Eve celebrations along with box of saltwater taffy.  She was also offered the opportunity to participate in the annual polar bear ocean dip, but Heidi declined. (Smart girl. Far too cold!!)

Learn more about Heidi’s amazing contest win in The Philidelphia Inquirer or on ABC News.

ENJOY, GOOD LUCK & HAVE FUN!!
