What You'll Do
Those “Choose Your Own Adventure” books and shows? They’ve got nothing on this. You’ve scored $20,000 to choose your own vacation adventure! Let that sink in. Twenty. Thousand. Dollars. All for you to plan your dream vacation! The destination, guest list, accomodations and how long you stay is all up to you. Want to invite all your closest (and close-ish) friends to a weeklong party in the sun? Booked. Rather treat your tight-knit family to first-class flights and a luxuriously relaxing resort getaway? You’ve got it. Or maybe you’re more of a solo traveler who wants to eat, pray, love your way around the world? Consider it done. Plus, if you don’t spend the whole $20K on travel arrangements, we’ll give you the remaining cash to use as you please.
No donation or payment is necessary to enter or win this sweepstakes.
