STEP OUTSIDE
To Win $1,000
By simply asking someone to STEP OUTSIDE to enjoy target shooting, archery, hunting or fishing, you can win a $1,000 gift certificate. What's the catch? There is none. It's the way the STEP OUTSIDE program is saying thank you to outdoorsmen and women who promote traditional outdoor activities.

You're eligible to enter the STEP OUTSIDE Host and Guest Drawing if you have introduced someone new to target shooting, archery, fishing or hunting during the past year. If you haven't, there's still time. Invite someone to STEP OUTSIDE and enter the contest for your chance to win a gift certificate worth up to $1,000 toward the purchase of outdoor equipment and supplies. Deadline for submitting entries is January 31, 2000.

The STEP OUTSIDE program encourages outdoorsmen and outdoorswomen to introduce others to outdoor activities. Without a doubt, a personal invitation from you, an outdoors person, is the easiest and most enjoyable way for a first-timer to try his or her hand at target shooting, archery, hunting or fishing.

Each time you invite someone to STEP OUTSIDE and send in your STEP OUTSIDE Host Registration Form, both you and your guests are automatically entered in the STEP OUTSIDE Host and Guest Drawing. Those who enter have an opportunity to win one of several gift certificates. The grand prize is a gift certificate valued at $1,000. Other prizes include a first-place prize of a $500 gift certificate, five second-place prizes of $100 gift certificates and fifty third-place prizes of STEP OUTSIDE T-shirts.

All hosts who register are winners since everyone receives a choice of a lapel pin, embroidered patch or window decal. Hosts are also recognized on the STEP OUTSIDE Champions Club list.

You may win other great prizes by sharing your experience either through photographs or a story of your STEP OUTSIDE experience. Photo and essay contest entries will be judged on how well the photo and/or story reflect the STEP OUTSIDE concept. Top prizes for photos and stories are $500 gift certificates.

You can find more information and register on-line at www.stepoutside.org, or write to STEP OUTSIDE, 11 Mile Hill Road, Newtown, CT 06470 to receive a copy of the registration form and contest information.
