You Really LOVE High River - Valentine's Day Contest Winner!

Big congrats going out to Jenn Norris!

We drew her entry in the 'You Love High River, We Love High River' contest this Friday morning just after 8:40.

And what a great story she shared with us too:

 Big thanks to Austen Jewellers for the $100 gift card!
