Based on the past experience of this Calhoun County woman and her family, this prize could be
generating some power at some times when they really need it.
Cassie Elkins of Chloe is the winner of the 5,500-watt generator that was up for grabs in the WCHS-Fox11 Facebook contest. Cassie and her family came to the station in Charleston on Tuesday to pick up the generator, and it could not have come at a better time. Snow is in the forecast, and the family lives in a small community that is usually the last to get its power back on when there is an outage. In recent storms, the family has lost a lot of food when the power gets knocked out.
Cassie entered the contest at the suggestion of her father, and she said she is excited because she has never won anything previously.
Congratulations to Cassie and her family. Be on the lookout for more great contests coming your way from WCHS-Fox11.
