Thankyou to all those who entered my Rootstech 2020 Pass Competition via Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or by leaving a comment on my blog. I was overwhelmed by the response to my Pass Giveaway and it is wonderful to see so many people eager to return to Rootstech, or who are excited to attend the conference for the first time.
Every single entry gave compelling reasons for wishing to win the pass and attend the exciting tenth Anniversary of Rootstech in 2020. I wish I had a pass to give everyone who entered the competition but the winner has now been selected.
I am especially excited to announce my WINNER of a FOUR DAY PASS to Rootstech 2020 becauseshehas actually been a previous winner. Clearly her enthusiastic strategy of entering the competition on multiple social media patforms gave her a front-running edge this year.
I am thrilled to announce....
CONGRATULATIONS PAULA!
Paula wrote, I would love to win the Pass to Rootstech 2020. Love the time spent with my three daughters and so many things I learn there!
In another entry Paula commented, I am excited to attend Roostech 2020 with my three daughters! Hopefully I can meet you this year since last year we couldn't make connections.
BUT WAIT....THERE IS A TWIST! After drawing Paula's name as my winner I discovered that she had already won a Pass to Rootstech 2020 from The Family History Detectives. Since Paula is travelling to Rootstech with her three daughters, I decided to OFFER THE PASS TO ONE OF PAULA'S DAUGHTERS.
[Please just ask for me at the media hub in the Expo Hall, Paula. I would love to meet you and your daughters!]
Many thanks again to everyone who entered the competition and of course a HUGE thankyou to the Rootstech organisers for allowing me to give away this pass to such a deserving family historian as Paula Moultrie - my lucky two times winner.
