The Winners Are:

On May 1, the traditional date for the running of the Kentucky Derby, the Manchester-Essex Rotary Club drew the winners of their 2^nd annual Run for the Roses raffle. The three cash prize winners are: first place, $7,500 to Marty Flood, second place, $1,500 to Marcella Flammia and third place, $1,000 to Pat Rhoads. Our Derby Day hat contest winner of a dozen roses and a bottle of Kentucky Bourbon is Caroline Carlson.

Caroline Carlson's 95 year old mother whose hat was the winning submission.
