Air Arms Christmas Giveaway - The Winners

Air Arms had a phenomenal response to the Air Arms Christmas Giveaway. 


Originally, the Air Arms giveaway asked people to nominate a person who they thought deserved to receive a new Air Arms Rifle along with a gunship, merchandise and other treats.
After shortlisting 3 potential winners, Air Arms decided to meet those shortlisted over zoom and announce that those shortlisted had won an Air Arms and the additional prizes. 

The winners were:

1. Kevin Clarke from Wales, who was nominated by his two loving daughters after a particularly difficult year for Kavin and his family. You can watch the announcement here: 

Air Arms Winner 1 - Kevin Clarke 

2. Bryan Willaemers from Belgium who was nominated by his father Wilfred after Bryan was unfortunately diagnosed with an incurable cancer earlier this year. You can watch the announcement here:

Air Arms Winner 2 - Bryan Willaemers

3. Nichole Stoughton from the USA, who was nominated by her husband Kevin. You can watch the announcement here:

Thank you to all those who entered the giveaway. 

We wish you all a happy 2021. 

Best wishes, 

Air Arms

Thank you Claire and Air Arms for the absolutely wonderful Christmas Giveaway. Thank you for your extreme generosity and for choosing three winners versus just the original one that the giveaway was intended to surprise. It is so very generous and appreciated by all the winners I’m sure.

Claire, it was our pleasure to get to meet with you via Zoom. It was a little bit intimidating for both my wife and I but after talking a little bit we began to relax and have quite a bit of fun. BAM, then we were told we weren’t just on the short list but that my wife was actually one of the three chosen winners. Tears were shed, smiles and laughter were shared and we were so pleasantly surprised that we got all tongue tied again. It was after all, a super prize package! It really was great to meet you and tell a little bit of my wife’s story. If I would have known my wife’s was going to be chosen as a winner and this video shared all over the internet, I would have been a lot more thorough explaining why my wife is so deserving of this prize. Needless to say, she is!

As my two son’s Alex and Cooper get older, we find ourselves shooting more and more often, usually 2, 3 or 4 times a week depending on the weather and time of year. We drive to our range and Nichole stays at home, kind of a bummer. Our hope was that if Nichole was chosen as a winner, we would still shoot very frequently but now, we could include Nichole and shoot as a “whole” family, each with our own PCP. That’s exactly what we’re planning on doing now too. Not only is Nichole ecstatic to be given this prize, so are Alex, Cooper and I. Hopefully Nichole will love it as much as the boys and I, so we can spend lots of time together, shooting as a family foursome. 

My wife, my boys and I would like to thank Claire and everyone at Air Arms for their generosity. Not only does Air Arms have giveaway’s often throughout the year, they always seem to be helping people, however they can, from the grass roots level up. This is because Claire loves air guns and our sport, she is passionate about it and it shows. Air Arms always seem to be sponsoring event’s or doing whatever they can to help grow our sport. Their dedication to our sport and helping air gunners at every level is so commendable. One last time...Thank you Air Arms! 

Sincerely, Kevin, Nichole, Alex and Cooper Stoughton


 
Claire, you're a thoroughly enjoyable person with a great heart ... and your light-hearted laughter and song was the crowning moment. Thank you for your generosity and kindness, you are such a credit to the industry.

To the winners, from the bottom of my heart C-O-N-G-R-A-T-U-L-A-T-I-O-N-S!!!!!!!!! Air Arms has picked well. Good, wholesome people everyone, well deserving of the blessing of owning a fantastic airgun of their own choosing. My prayer is that the the new rifle will bring you all closer together, take your mind off your troubles and bless your lives in ways that make a real difference. May God bless each and everyone of you.

Shalom

John
