There was an atmosphere of excited anticipation Friday night at Charles Hoey Park as the five finalists in Duncan Has Talent’s show and cover tunes division took the MNP stage.
After each presenting two songs for the crowd and the mentors/judges, Laura Cardriver and Robyn Fortunat, everyone had to wait quite a while as it was obvious that making the final choice was really difficult.
However, finally, Taysha McCuaig emerged at the winner of the contest, and of $500, donated by the Duncan Lions and the group’s Sassy Lion thriftstore.

Second place, and $250 went to Sabrina Spenceley, and third place went to Lyndon Van Der Mark.
