Bonnie Leigh won the ukelele in the raffle through what could only be described as Old Songs magic. Bonnie, who is an instrument exchange volunteer, filled out her slip with what she said was a “magic pen” and jokingly asked the raffle volunteer to put away the pen - and they did! And she won - through the use of the “magic” pen!
