[February 06, 2009]  It was going to happen sooner or later with Close Up, and it did for January. Rather than an organization, an individual whose accomplishments were highlighted in our page has won the Close Up grab bag $25 check. The young man is Jason Sheley of Zion Lutheran School. Close Up will be mailing a check to the school to give to Jason for a job well done coupled with a little bit of grab bag good fortune.
