The United Way has worked with two businesses to provide a special incentive for area residents to participate in this year’s campaign. TLC Travel and The Commercial and Savings Bank have joined forces to offer a five-day trip for two to the Casa Playa Resort in Fort Myers, Florida along with a $500 travel voucher. Ten finalists will be selected from companies that have completed their campaigns by Friday, December 19, 2008 at 12:00pm. A complete set of rules is listed below:
Rules and Regulations for Prize Eligibility
1. Prize. A five-day, four-night stay for two at the Casa Playa Beach Resort in Florida. A $500 travel voucher is also included with the prize package. Verifiable retail value: $1,750. The prize is not transferable or redeemable for cash or substitution. The prizewinner is responsible for all federal, state and local taxes. Participation may affect the tax deductibility of your gift. Donors should consult their tax advisors. Void where prohibited by law.
2. Eligibility. Any person is eligible if he or she: a) is 25 years of age or older; b) is not an employee of United Way of Tuscarawas County, a member of the Board of Trustees, or living in the same household as an employee or board member; and c) makes a pledge of at least $1.
3. Entries. Prize entry pool represents pledge forms returned. All late, lost or incomplete pledge forms are invalid entries, regardless of the cause. If a company does not use United Way of Tuscarawas County’s Pledge Form, photocopies of internal pledge forms or other pledge verification documents must be submitted by the entry deadline. All entries must be returned to the United Way of Tuscarawas County office no later than 12:00pm on Friday, December 19, 2008 to be eligible for the drawing. Entries not received by this deadline will not be eligible for the drawing.
If a company does not use the United Way of Tuscarawas County pledge forms, photocopies of internal pledge forms or other pledge verification documents must be submitted by the entry deadline indicated above.
4. Winning & Odds: Ten finalists will be randomly selected from among all qualified entries received consistent with these Official Rules in advance of the final drawing for the one prizewinner, and the one prizewinner will be announced during the United Way of Tuscarawas County Annual Meeting in February 2009. The decision of the judges will be final and binding. The odds of winning cannot be determined because they depend on the total number of qualified entries received. Entrants do not need to be present to win. If not present, the prizewinner will be notified by telephone or U.S. mail shortly after the drawing. If the winner cannot be notified within five days, an alternate winner will be chosen. To find out the name of the prizewinner, visit the UWTC Web site at www.tuscunitedway.org or contact UWTC at (330) 343-7772 after March 1, 2009.
5. Claiming Prize. To claim the prize, the prizewinner must sign and return by the date UWTC specifies in writing, an affidavit of prize acceptance form in which the prizewinner certifies his or her eligibility and agrees to pay all taxes, fees and other governmental assessments on the prize; authorizes UWTC to use the prizewinner’s name and photo for publicity; releases and hold harmless the sponsors, the United Way of Tuscarawas County, Inc., and their respective agents and employees. Any failure to do so will result in forfeiture of the prize and selection of an alternate winner by a random drawing.
