“We get the paper every time it comes out and we always enter these types of competitions, so to win one is fantastic, as this is great for our whole family.
“We love our community, and we love the fact that this promotion is supporting the local community with its prize. It means a lot to us that local businesses are being supported through this promotion.
“We really want to thank Rock Solid and all the local businesses involved for their involvement.”
