2011 Forestry Forum Christmas Contest
« on: December 11, 2011, 02:26:15 pm »
Usually every year we have a contest at Christmas. Lat year, I was in the hospital at this time, so, we didn't have one, which I am deeply disgusted with myself over.  :-\

HOWEVER ;D   

This year we are going to have one, and it is starting NOW!. Most of you know, that have participated before, I can make them  diabolically difficult. Well, you won't be disappointed this year if that is what you are expecting and looking forward to.  :)


This years Prize winner will have His/Her choice of either a 48" or 60" Logrite Tools Peavey or Cant Hook, Compliments of Logrite Tools.

Prizes have been added for second and third prize winners as well. Each will receive a Bluecreeper value pack from www.bluecreeper.com !



What you have to do:
1. You have to unscramble groups of Forestry Forum Member names.

2. You take the first letter of each member name to form a word for that group.

3. Repeat for each group to get 8 words.

4. Use those 8 words to complete a Forestry Forum web address
EXAMPLE http://www.forestryforum.com/this is how you use your eight words

5. You now go to that address. If you go to the correct address, you will know it right away, because you will get specific instructions on how to send me your entry for the drawing. If it is not the right address, you won't be able to continue.

6. You will need to be logged in as a Forestry Forum member to successfully send your entry. Guests, now is the time to get registered! :)

7. Your entry must be received by noon EST, December 22nd. We will draw a winner from those entries on Christmas Eve.

8. If you live outside of the U.S., and win, you will be responsible for shipping costs of your Logrite Cant Hook

Here are the groups to create your 8 words.
