(GCI), the highly-respected resort developer, travel club fulfillment and service provider of Global Discovery Vacations (GDV), is pleased to announce the winners of the annual Grand Prize drawing held by its authorized sales distributor Global Travel Network (GTN). Over the course of 2018, 120,000 participants entered GTN drawings at various venues in California, Colorado and Utah. The lucky winners, John and Robin Whittaker (Salt Lake City, UT) were selected from 4,000 participants at a Spring Home and Garden show in March 2018.

“We were extremely pleased with the success of this marketing campaign,” said Scott Nichols, President of GTN. “It was an added bonus that the Whittakers are also GDV members and were selected at random from thousands of entries.”
