Announcing the results from our Best Idea for a New Troll - Contest ...
Mermaid Troll
It seems fitting that the author of the best known mermaid story " The Little Mermaid" came from Odense, Denmark... the same hometown as Ken and Neta Arensbak. Most people now are familiar with mermaids because of the Hans Christian Andersen story that was made into a popular animated movie, but the mermaid legends did not begin with Andersen. They had been told for centuries by the ancient mariners about their voyages over the vast and mysterious oceans.
The winners will each receive a troll from the first group of these trolls made. Congratulations to:
Ruth R. Palm Harbor, FL
John H. Florence, KY
Madison F. Dover, OH
And many thanks to all who entered. If you think that you have a good idea that we did not select just re-enter it!

We are busy working on this troll and some other new additions...
