2012 Wristbands
Wristbands have been sold in the lead-up to the Carnival, to support the staging of the whole event. These have been on sale at Milnrow presinct and at shops and from sellers throughout Milnrow, Newhey, Firgrove and Rochdale. The yellow bands read "Support Your Community Carnival", and supporters have done just that by paying £1.00 for a band.
Each wristband features a unique embossed number. In purchasing a band, supporters were entered into a lucky draw. Here are this years' winning numbers (drumroll please):
1141 - Andrea - £50 Cash
816 - Josh - Pamper Hamper
522 - Heather - John Milne Meal Voucher

CONGRATULATIONS if you're a lucky winner. All winners have been contacted, except for number 1278, who did not leave us any contact details. Please check your bands now to see if you've won, and contact us to arrange delivery of your prize (we will need to see your winning band! :-)).
Particular thanks go to Betty and Joan, for administering the sale of the bands, and to Anita, Claire and the Carnival Queens for their dedication in selling on Milnrow Precinct. Thanks also to all our wonderful sellers throughout the villages for all of their support.
If you bought a band and didn't win, fear not - as we will be selling them again next year. Thank you for all of your support.
