The winners will be posted in The Cavendish Update and here on the blog on Friday, March 6th; with that announcement we will post a new puzzle as well. One lucky winner's name will be drawn at random and will receive a free entry into the Cavendish Connects "All Things Cavendish" Raffle, which will take place on Saturday, December 5th at the 2nd Annual Abundance Swap. 

This month's puzzle is a crossword created courtesy of Cavendish resident Kem Phillips.

You may either print the crossword out, complete it, and mail it or scan it and e-mail it to us. You can also email us your answers numbered (ex. 1, 2, 3, etc.). 

Please feel free to reach out at cavendishconnects@gmail.com with any questions! 

We hope you enjoy tackling this first puzzle!
