♛ KRA Champions 2012 ♛


 

Congratulations

 
We had a lot of participants trying their luck in the scavenger hunt and most of them did really well with all the questions.
 
Four participants just were top and got not only all questions right, but also in a speed and accuracy which was astonishing.
It therefor was so very hard for us to decide, who of those four knowledge champions, should win and be our
 

KRA Champion 2012

 
So we came up with the idea to share the price and give badges of honour to all four of our KRA knowledge champions.
 
Here are the prices and options. The chosen itemn will get an individual inscription for each of the four KRA Champions:
