Turkey hunt a Watson family affair

Three generations of Highton’s Watson family have joined forces to win a tasty turkey for Christmas lunch.
They scoured the pages of last week’s Indy to help make Anthony Watson one of the five winners in the inaugural Talkin’ Turkey competition.
Anthony called on family resources to find the turkeys, knowing that dozens of eyes were better than two.
“I put grandma on it and the kids as well,” he said.
They found the turkeys in advertisements for The Joker Shoppe, Scooters Australia, Routleys, Camper Trailers Geelong and Larko’s.
Entrants have to find turkey icons hidden in five adverts to go into the draw.
The five winners weekly each receive a free turkey from the Indy and Corio’s A Cut Above butcher shop.
The five-week competition began last Friday and finishes with the 18 December edition.
Entrants can identify as few or as many adverts with turkeys as they like but entries with all five are prioritised for the draw.
Indy managing editor Tony Galpin was surprised that more than 50 entrants found all five turkeys last week.
“Some of the turkeys were extremely well hidden, such as in the camper trailers ad.
“Well done to all the entrants who found them all.”
How to enter: email indy@geelongindy.com.au; message facebook.com/GeelongIndy; or phone 5249 6700.
Include the entrant’s name and contact phone number.
