25 Roads for 25 Years Challenge – October Update The 25 Roads for 25 Years Challenge concluded at the end of September. Sonia and I spent October entering and double-checking the results, as well as finalizing the awards and draw prizes. Marilyn Sing and John Clark pulled together a beautiful and unique certificate that is going out to all participants, and Karl Hoener updated the website so you can easily see the results. We wrapped up the Challenge during the VIRPCA Annual General Meeting on October 31 in Duncan. The ten teams that completed all 25 Roads were awarded a certificate of completion and will receive a grill badge. Don Gosse and Gary Glover received first and second place ribbons and a bottle of scotch from the distant third to finish team (me and Sonia). The other 45 teams that completed at least one road were awarded a certificate of participation and will receive a grill badge with a slightly different design. For those who weren’t at the AGM, we will arrange to have awards and draw prizes delivered to you and will be in touch through email. As promised at the beginning of the challenge, we also presented prizes based on enthusiasm and creativity. Below is the full list: Accomplishment
