BAPIA announces January competition winners

The theme of BAPIA’s January Facebook competition was birthdays, and was sponsored by Northwest Greetings.

The winners of the competition are Helen Clayton from Cheeky Gorgeous Events in the Most Likes category; Lynda Webb from Bloon Away Boston in the Judges Choice category; and Kin O’Sullivan from Party Twists in the Random Winner category.

John Bowler, BAPIA chief executive, commented: “I cannot tell you how difficult it was for the judges to select a winner, as the quality, designs and techniques were truly incredible. And with almost 100 entries it genuinely took a great deal of time to even select a shortlist for the Judge’s Choice winner.”

Sponsor Northwest Greetings provided packs of Kalisan latex balloons as prizes. A collage of the entries will be posted on the BAPIA Facebook page shortly.

The February competition theme is Valentine’s and love, and entries are already rolling in. This month’s competition is sponsored by Greetings House and is open to all BAPIA members. For more information on BAPIA, and the benefits of membership, head to www.bapiaonline.com.

If you are visiting Spring Fair, you can meet chief executive of BAPIA, John Bowler on the Qualatex stand on Sunday and Monday.
