Congratulations to our winners listed below in no particular order!
Beth Lacey
My favorite place to kick back and listen to WYPR this summer is in the grass under the shade tree of my front yard, with one hand surrounding a cold Natty Bo and the other scratching my dog behind the ears.
Christy
My favorite place to kick back and listen to WYPR this summer is driving over the Bay Bridge on the way to the beaches.
Nicole
My favorite place to kick back and listen to WYPR this summer is in my backyard, tossing feed to my chickens and eating our homegrown cucumbers and tomatoes.
These three listener participants will receive a WYPR T-shirt. This week is the last round of the contest. If you’ve been thinking about submitting a finisher in any of the previous three rounds, this is the one you should throw your hat into.

P.S. Even if you are not a finalist in this first round, there will be other chances this month to contribute. The next “Complete the Sentence” thread will be posted on July 13 at 8 AM.
To celebrate the summer season during the month of July, WYPR will be holding a “Complete the Sentence” contest.
The idea is simple: WYPR will post a partial sentence, and you finish it with something creative, witty, sincere, fun, hysterical or something no one was expecting (nothing scandalous please). Then, every Friday you will have the opportunity to vote on your favorite submission. Just return to this site and vote. Each week three winners will be selected to receive a WYPR T-shirt. It is that simple.
It is not necessary to be a member to enter but come on, why would you not want to support the station that brings you as much information and entertainment as WYPR?
