Default Outdoor Base Campl Winter Sweepstakes 2011

This year OutdoorBaseCamp.com will be giving away a few items. We are going to do two simultaneous contests. A first for us. I hope you will be patient with it. The first sweepstakes for those who write, and the second will be for anyone. Each sweepstakes will have a grand prize and a runner up.

There will be two ways to enter. The first will be writing an article for OutdoorBasecamp.com to post on the site, this is for the first contest. Articles can be submitted through a future determined link. Articles should be 400 words or longer. The second sweepstakes will be having 20 (total forum) or more posts and reply to this thread. Posts should be quality posts and have more substance then replying to a thread and saying "me too" or "I agree".

Contest will start November 1st and run until December 31st. Any questions feel free to ask.

Reserved for updates and Q&A.


Articles Write up anything on the outdoors or outdoor related. Do a review on that new tent/book/fishing pole/etc.. you got. Write a review on your county/state/national park you visited. Tell us that how you lit your latest campfire, or that neat trick you used to catch the last fish. How you dress your last deer. You can view articles we already have on our main page http://www.outdoorbasecamp.com/ I ask that it is a minimum of 400 words though.


Q. I've got a journal entry or two from trips that I wrote. Does that count?
A. I will have to look at it, but is it a review of the park in some shape?


Gosh,I didn't do well in English composition But?
Do not forget, just by posting in this thread you entered the second contest.

Shoot I didn't get 1st to reply this time, I just got in from a weekend on the Tully trail.
First reply is not necessary. I use random.org to pull a random number. I then for the second contest go through and find the post that is the random number that is pulled and that is the winner. I will do something similar for the articles, but it will be for thread.


Hmm, off to google "sog fasthawk" since I have no idea what that stuff is.

Prizes:
1 SOG FastHawk F06-N,
1 SOG revolver - Seal FX-21,
1 SOG entrenching tool, F08-N
SOG Power Lock.
