Hi all

I went to York Optical at Brookvale this afternoon for the draw of the IceInSpace 3rd Birthday Competition!

And the winners are...

1st Place

Rodstar


2nd Place

Solanum


3rd Place

akritc


Congratulations to the winners for picking up the great prizes on offer, and thanks very much to the generous sponsors who donated prizes in order to make this competition happen! Please show your support to them, for showing their support to the IceInSpace community!

I'll be contacting the winners via PM and they will have 1 week to respond and acknowledge their prize and give me their address and contact details.

Thanks to everyone who entered the competition and helping to celebrate the 3rd birthday of IceInSpace!

I'll be updating the Competition Info page with the winners info over the next few days.

Below is a picture of the draw. Thanks to Glen, Aidan and the people at York Optical for their hospitality this afternoon and for taking part in the draw!

Great news. Can't believe it!

Thanks Mike for organising the 3rd birthday comp, and for 3 years of slog and creative genius in developing and growing this site into what it is today. It is fantastic to be involved at all, let alone to score 1st prize!

Thanks also to the sponsors.....not only am I personally thrilled with all of the prizes, but it is great that you actively support our Noble Hobby every day through your business endeavours, and through one off events like sponsoring this IceInSpace competition.

Well done guys. Likewise thanks to the sponsors and everyone involved in running the contest. Was a lot of fun.

Well on the bright side for me I can tell the wife it's safe for her to buy me the stellar seat for Xmas.

Cheers,

Wow, I'm totally amazed! I can't think of anything I've won by chance before. Every part of the prize will be useful to me, which is even better. Particularly looking forward to the binos as I was using my smaller birdwatching ones (8x42) just last night.

Thanks again to Ice in Space and the sponsors - I almost feel guilty having only been on here just under a year - almost!

I am real excited bout winning the prizes that were up for grabs @ 3rd place.

Solanum you shouldn't feel guilty cause i have been here for just over a month and a half. I joined because this site had an abundance of information on outer - space and specially about the lunar eclipse in August.

Once again thanks to everyone who participated and thanks to the sponsors for the prizes.

Regards

Akrit
