Send us your best shot! We’re giving away $1000+ in Columbia Sportswear gear for the best hash-tagged pics (#openingday) between today and December 15. To play:
1) Snap It: Take a photo (or upload one you have) of an #openingday scene
2) Tag It: On Instagram, tag the pic with #openingday & @Columbia1938
3) Win The Gear! $250 Gift Card for winners each week. 20 runner-ups each get Columbia gear
Be sure to follow @TheGearJunkie on Instagram for updates. The contest starts today (Nov. 15, 2013) and runs for four weeks. We will pick the best #openingday each week and display them on the GJ blog.
Tips To Enter: From the first chair of the year at your favorite ski resort, to the “opening day” at an ice-climbing crag, we’re giving creative license to capture the moment where winter starts for you and your activity of choice. Winter running, snowshoeing, cold-weather bike commuting, ice skating, backcountry skiing, and more… all of these unique “opening day” scenarios are valid. Hint: Not required, but bonus points to be awarded for any #openingday image that includes Omni-Heat reflective apparel.
Photo Rights: You keep all rights. Submitting an image gives GearJunkie and Columbia the option to display the images on blog and social media.
Details On The Prizes: 24 prizes in all, including four gift cards ($250 each) plus 20 Omni-Heat winter hats (men’s and women’s styles available) in total.
Deadline: Final #OpeningDay submissions must be made by December 15, 2013. Good luck!
