The drawing for the “Experience Fishtown” raffle is now past, sadly, leaving behind more than a few dreams of idylls on the banks of the Leland River. The winners of the drawing came from these towns:
Grand Prize shanty stay and gift basket: Northport, Michigan
Photograph by Keith Burnham, Leland Report: Farmington Hills, Michigan
Photograph by Ken Scott Photography: St. Louis, Missouri
Photograph Meggen Watt Photography: Leland, Michigan
And here are a few photos, with Fishtown Preservation staffers Summer Meyer and Amanda Holmes; FPS President Berkley Duck, III; musical guest Steve Lindo; and those who actually did the drawings, an unnamed young man in the audience and Keith Burnham of The Leland Report.
