Q98 15K prize to go to couple’s kitchen makeover

Sep 10, 2016 | 5:54 PM

A new kitchen is in store for Q98’s Birthday Bash grand prize winner.

Janet Laird chose the Bernier Millworks prize out of 15 options after her name was drawn at the Birthday Bash Friday night, Sept. 9 at the Tropical Inn in North Battleford.

“I’m still shaking,” she said after her win. “I was thrilled, I’ve never really won anything big before.”

Laird was one of 60 grand prize contestants.

She and her husband will use the money to replace the cupboards and vanities in their home. She said they don’t have a specific design in mind yet and can’t wait to consult with the experts at Bernier Millworks to get started.

“We’ve wanted them for years and now we’re going to get them,” her husband Lyle Laird said. “I hope she’s the happiest woman in the world.”

The Lairds said they wake up to Nic Fransoo’s show on Q98 every morning and have been listening to the station since it started 15 years ago.
