Who said contests aren’t seasonal? By looking at some of the contests running this month, it is pretty easy to guess that it must be July.
Hobie Polarized Sunglasses
In honor of their 30th Anniversary, Hobie is running a Facebook photo contest to find the Ultimate Hobie Soul. Snap a photo of yourself wearing your Hobie sunglasses while tackling adventure, whether that’s kayaking, biking or catching some rays on the beach. Nothing says summer like putting on your favorite pair of sunglasses.
2012 Placemaking Chicago Contest
Have you transformed a vacant space in the Chicago metropolitan region into a temporary community asset? The Space in Between contest is looking for examples of creative temporary uses of vacant space from around the area. The goal is to remove the all-or-nothing view of space during the road to economic recovery. Is there a perfect summer-use for a vacant space near you?
Telemedicine Video Contest
The American Telemedicine Association contest is asking people to create a short video showing why patients and/or healthcare providers should expect telemedicine, mHealth or remote monitoring as a standard healthcare service. An interesting concept, and one we will be surely hearing more about in the near future. Getting outside in the summer is great way to improve your health, but traveling can make healthcare difficult, is there value in telemedicine over summer vacation?
Summer Peach Recipes
If you live in Florida, Georgia or South Carolina and love peaches (we assume this is everyone), share your favorite recipe to win. Harvey’s Supermarket is asking residents to share their favorite, original recipe with at least one peach and two MyEssentials™ products for a chance to win $250. Sounds like a delicious summer ahead.
