Winners are grinners

THE Kell family only bought one $50 ticket in the St Columban’s car raffle.

Judy and Donald, along with daughters Ashlee and Donna, drove home with a new Toyota Rav 4 last month when their only ticket was drawn from hundreds of others.

The Morayfield residents were “speechless” when the girls phoned home with the news after the raffle was drawn at assembly.

“Their Dad said, ‘Are you sure?’ when they rang their parents,” the school’s youth ministry co-ordinator Paul Blom said.

Ashlee and Donna are in Year 11 at the Caboolture college, north of Brisbane.

The raffle was a World Youth Day fundraiser.
