2nd Place - Kelly Spencer

I'll be drawing the prize for the Junior Surf Kids who sold tickets tomorrow and contacting the winner + popping a post up here :)

Note that the Adults 1st place prize pack was valued at over $1,000 therefore was required to be drawn under police supervision and was therefore done so.
