Lucky treasure hunt winner scoops £100 prize from Chamber of Trade

The winner of this year's Burnham-On-Sea Regatta Treasure Hunt has been named this week by organisers.

Bridgwater's Diane Stuart beat off competition from 55 other entries and was handed her first prize of £100 cash by Alex Turco, Chairman of Burnham's Chamber Of Trade, this week.

Diane was chosen by a panel of judges after providing the best answer to the tiebreaker: "I like summer in Burnham because..."

She responded: "Because of beautiful beaches, Unspoilt small resort, Relaxing atmosphere, Numerous shops, Helpful friendly people, Activities for the family, Must come again." The capital letters of her answer cleverly make up the town's name.

The runners-up in the competition each received vouchers, a bottle of champagne and a meal for two at a Burnham restaurant. Chairman Alex Turco told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "The Chamber would like to thank all those who took part, the businesses who acted as clues, and the sponsors of our prizes. We offer our congratulations to the lucky prize winners."
