YWO Grand Prize Draw 2007
The Yorkshire Wind Orchestra held a 2007 Grand Prize Draw which was drawn at the Autumnal Concert at Gateways School, Harewood, Leeds on Sunday 18th November 2007.
A lovely selection of donated prizes were won by 11 lucky winners, chosen at random during the interval of our Autumnal Concert.
The orchestra raised over £1,100 from the sale of Grand Prize Draw tickets which provides a welcome boost to fund our 2008 activities, so a big thank you to everyone who took part.
