Winner of Hersheypark Passes

23 July 2010 180 views 2 Comments

Congratulations to this week’s Giveaway Contest winner, Loretta Dodson, who won 4 free passes to Hersheypark.

This week’s giveaway was sponsored by Hershey Half Marathon.

The Hershey Half Marathon takes place on Sunday, October 3rd. The race will begin and end in Hersheypark Stadium, wind through Hershey Town USA and the amusement park before leaving the Hershey property to meander past Hershey Childrens Hospital and other local roads in the area. There is also a half marathon relay if perhaps you and a friend care to race as a team. Proceeds from the race benefit Children’s Miracle Network at Penn State Children’s Hospital. Your registration fee includes entry to Hersheypark for you and your family on Saturday evening from 6:00-9:00 pm. I’d also like to mention that there is a kids Fun Run on Saturday at 5:45 pm for children ages 13 and under.
Registration is approaching 1500 and only 2500 entries are available.

I’d love to know if you plan to run it – leave a comment below if you plan to sign up or already have. I will definitely be there (registered last week)!

I’ll be there! Your original contest post about it convinced me to sign myself and my husband up for the relay. We’re both so excited!!! Can’t wait to find out more about that Chocolate Aid station!
