Win 3-Month Vacation to Colo.
October 20, 2009, 1:19 pm
Colorado’s trying to spread the snowy love with its new “Snow at First Sight” video contest. The contest, which runs through Nov. 9, is meant to make someone “fall in love” with snow — and Colorado — for the first time.
That means the competition is limited to people who haven’t spent a “significant” amount of time around snow. The three winners get an all-expenses-paid, three-month-long vacation in Colorado doing all-things snow, from skiing and snowboarding to sledding, snowshoeing, and so on.
To enter, shoot a video that’s less than a minute long about “why you deserve to win.” Upload your video to the Snow at First Sight Web site, www.coloradosnowatfirstsight.com, to be ranked by the public and a panel of judges.
Ski bums and anyone who grew up around frozen fluffy white stuff need not apply.

THIS IS HORRIBLE! I don’t qualify! This really is an amazing opportunity! I went to the site and there’s only like six videos up right now! If anything, I think your chances are good to be picked if they only end up with 40 or 50 submissions! They pick 10 to go down to Colorado to “audition” and then three people win.
