 GUESSING CONTEST
 Valentine’s Day may be over, but we’re still celebrating!
Can you guess the number of candy kisses?
By looking at this photo, guess the number of candy kisses in the glass container. The container measures 9 inches tall and it is 3.5 inches in diameter. Sorry, no in-person viewing of the container!
 
To win, you must guess the correct number of candy kisses, or guess the closest to the correct number without going over.
Example: there are 100 candy kisses in the container. Resident A guesses 98, Resident B guesses 99 and Resident C guesses 101. Resident B will be the winner. If two people guess the correct number or are the closest without going over, they will both win and will split the candy in the container. If three or more people guess the correct number or are the closest without going over, there will be a tiebreaker. We will re-fill the container and those in the tiebreaker will guess again.
 
Please, only one guess per reply, and only one reply per resident! If you reply more than once, or submit multiple guesses, you will be disqualified. Send your guess to [email protected].
Replies must be received via email by Friday, Feb. 19 at noon. Please put ‘guessing contest’ in your email subject line and include your name and email address in your reply, along with your guess. Good luck!
