– Global Connections Inc. (GCI), the highly-respected developer, travel club fulfillment and service provider, proudly announces the Grand Prize winners in an annual drawing held by its authorized distributor Global Travel Network (GTN).
This year’s Grand Prize winners of a $2500 Target Gift Card were selected at random from hundreds of entries at the Cal Expo Winter Wonderland event.
According to Scott Nichols, President of GTN, The Araya Family were incredulous when they were notified of their good fortune. “When we first received the letter we didn’t believe it; but upon calling and confirming it, we were excited to receive the prize.”
Nichols said Mrs. Araya told him that “the older kids will get new clothes; the younger kids will get new toys and we’ll donate some of it.”
