By entering into the Beef Trail Passport (the “Promotion”), entrants accept and agree to be bound by these Official Rules. Any violation of these rules may, at Sponsor’s discretion, result in disqualification. All decisions regarding this Promotion are final and binding.
1. ELIGIBILITY: The Promotion is only open to entrants who are legal U.S. residents 18 or older at the time of entry with a mailing address in the contiguous United States. Employees, officers, and directors of the Pennsylvania Beef Council (“Sponsor”) and any other entities involved in the preparation of materials and/or administration of this Promotion (collectively referred to herein as the “Sweepstakes Entities”) and their immediate family members (spouse, siblings, children, and parents) and those living in the same household as those individuals, whether or not related, are not eligible to enter. This Promotion is void where prohibited. All prize awards are subject to eligibility determination and final verification by the Sponsor.
2. ENTRY PERIODS: The Promotion will begin on January 7th and end on September 4th, 2023, at 11:59 p.m. EST (the “Entry Period”). Mail-in entries received after the Entry Period will not be accepted.
3. HOW TO ENTER: During the Entry Period, eligible entrants will visit a dedicated mobile landing page, supplied by Bandwango, where they can sign up for their Beef Trail Passport by providing their name, email address, and mobile phone number. When you visit a participating restaurant, buy a beef menu item and check-in at that location.
You will receive one (1) entry into the sweepstakes for a stamp collected at each participating restaurant. Only one passport may be completed per person, per email address.
To enter without completing a passport, print your name, address, daytime phone number, email address, and the name of one participating restaurant on a 3”x5” post card and mail to the Pennsylvania Beef Council at 205 South Juliana Street, Bedford, Pennsylvania, 15522. Each post card entry must list the name of a participating restaurant from the Promotion and must be mailed separately. A list of participating restaurants can be found on the Promotion’s mobile landing page. You will receive one (1) entry into the sweepstakes for each post card received by mail. You may not submit mail in post card entries in addition to completing the passport. All entrant information, including email addresses, is subject to the respective Privacy Policy of the Sponsor.
4. DRAWING AND WINNER NOTIFICATION: The winner selection will be conducted by random drawing from all eligible entries on or about September 5, 2023 (“the “Drawing Date”).
