Winter Celebrates her 4th Birthday

September 21, 2009

in CMA Events, Winter

Winter Receives More Than 500 Birthday Cards!

Thank you to everyone who helped make Winter’s 4th birthday extra-special by sending her a birthday card! She received more than 500 cards from schools and kids across the United States and even in Canada! It was tough to pick only five winners … but here they are. Winners should be on the look-out for something special to arrive in the mail from Winter and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Congrats to all!

• Mrs. Harto’s 4th grade class at St. Teresa School in Titusville, Florida

• Mrs. Geise’s Kindergarten class at Waterson Elementary in Watsontown, Pennsylvania

• Waterbridge Elementary students in Kissimmee, Florida (they made a huge Winter birthday banner)
