ANNOUNCING: Road Mileage Contest
On our epic
cross-country road trip, The Tick-Magnets will be caching our way through 29 states,
from Bonaire, Georgia, to Seattle, Washington, and back. We want you to be a
part of the action! You can follow along on our adventure through our blog
updates and Facebook posts. We hope to let you know of Webcams where we will
stop along the way. Plus, we have more than 30 vehicles entered into our
2014-2015 Middle Georgia Travel Bug Race. Now here’s another way for you to
join in the fun:
Would you
like to win a special Seattle souvenir? It’s easy: We want you to tell us your
best guess of HOW MANY MILES we will travel on this road trip. The guesser who
is closest to the correct mileage will WIN! We’ll bring back a fun prize from
Seattle just for you!
On Friday
morning, August 8th, we will take a photo of the odometer in our
geo-mobile just before we leave Georgia. We’ll post the picture, then we’ll
give you ONE WEEK (until Friday, August 15th) to post your guess
here. No more entries after the 15th. We are due to arrive home on
Sunday, August 24th, so we’ll add another picture of our final odometer
reading then … and we’ll announce the contest winner J
