Riverwalk A&E District's January 16-20 'Cultural Cheer Trivia Week' Contest Offers Daily Chance to Win Fantastic Cultural Getaways
Facebook Contest Keeps the Cultural Celebration Alive After the Holidays
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 12, 2012 -- Although the holidays are over, the celebration continues with Riverwalk Arts & Entertainment (A&E) District's Jan. 16-20 "Cultural Cheer Trivia Week" Contest. Anyone can participate in the contest and say goodbye to the post-holiday and winter blues, simply by answering daily trivia questions about Riverwalk A&E District partners. Those who answer correctly will have a chance to win a wonderful cultural experience in sun-soaked Fort Lauderdale.
To enter the contest, participants must "Like" the Riverwalk A&E District's Facebook page at www.facebook.com/riverwalkae. The trivia question of the day about a District partner will be posted on Riverwalk A&E District's wall. To answer, participants will complete the entry form and submit it. Those who answer correctly will be entered in a random drawing to possibly win a cultural experience within the Riverwalk A&E District, plus a unique Riverwalk A&E tote bag, recycled from banners which previously "danced in the wind" above the District and lined the historic New River.
The daily trivia contest prizes are:
