Sandy Crystal is the winner of the Bulletin's first Buy
Israel contest. We asked readers to call, e-mail or fax us with
ideas for items made in Israel that they found in unusual places.
Crystal, who is a nurse at the Louis Brier Home and Hospital, said
she had recently purchased sheets at Forty Winks and, while looking
at the label for washing instructions, found out that they are made
in Israel. The distributor, Norther Feather Ltd., is located right
in Delta.
Crystal won two tickets valued at $150 to see the grand celebration
of the Orpheum's 75th anniversary on Nov. 7, which featured internationally
celebrated pianists Robert Silverman, Jane Coop and Jon Kimura Parker,
as well as Canada's top male jazz vocalist Denzal Sinclaire and
renowned mezzo-soprano Jean Stilwell.
The Bulletin will have more contests coming up that will
feature tickets to the Playhouse production of Fiddler on the
Roof. So keep your eyes open for Israeli products.
