Picture This: National Home Improvement Sweepstakes winner | News, Sports, Jobs



Vincent resident Judy McAtee, centre, was the area winner of The Parkersburg Information and Sentinel/Marietta Times National House Improvement Sweepstakes. McAtee gained a $500 gift card from Trustworthy Fred’s Flooring, the neighborhood sponsor of the contest, with areas in Parkersburg, Marietta and Spencer. McAtee and her husband or wife, Donnie Allen, who teach line dancing in the place, are considering using the prize to order hardwood flooring for a dance ground in a “livable dance hall” they plan to construct. Pictured Thursday at Honest Fred’s Parkersburg place are, from remaining, homeowners Shellie and Mike Miller, McAtee, Allen and Stephanie Kesselring, particular initiatives coordinator for The Information and Sentinel and The Situations. The national contest integrated a $5,000 grand prize. (Photograph by Evan Bevins)
