The Friends of the Dinuba Public Library are thrilled to announce that Adriana Ramos is the winner of a donated ‘snowman’ themed, fully decorated, four-foot Christmas Tree.
Miss Dinuba, Alyssa Leal, drew the winning ticket on Friday, at the Dinuba Public Library. Also at the drawing were Miss Dinuba second runner-up Olivia Hayes and Miss Congeniality Delia Huerta.
Ramos’ good fortune includes three books [a cookbook, a book for a young child and a fun snowman themed book],
a stuffed statue of three snow people and the tree.
“Congratulations Adriana Ramos! We are so happy you are our winner from our 2017 drawing held Dec. 1 at our Dinuba Public Library,” Friends of the Dinuba Public Library member Joan Truitt said. “The Friends extend a huge thank you to everyone who purchased a ticket, supporting our efforts to raise money to purchase more books for our Dinuba Library. Look for our next tree in 2018 and see if you will be our lucky winner, while helping your Dinuba Library be the best library in the San Joaquin Valley.”
