NEW THIS YEAR
The Connecticut Association of Nonprofi ts is proudly sponsoring the Guess
the Birdies Sweepstakes. Donors will now have the opportunity to guess the
number of birdies made (Wed.-Sun.) of tournament week. On behalf of the
Connecticut Association of Nonprofi ts, the Grand Prize winner will receive a
$500 Visa gift card. Connecticut Association of Nonprofi ts will also provide your
designated charity with a $500 donation, 1 year membership and 4 training
sessions with their organization.
GUESS THE BIRDIES SWEEPSTAKES
The Grand Prize will be awarded to the person who guesses the exact number
of birdies made during the 2010 Travelers Championship. The guess may be
any number. One guess will be permitted per person and the tournament will
track only the fi rst pledge received with a proposed guess. In the case of a tie,
the Grand Prize winner will be chosen randomly by Travelers Championship
staff from among those who correctly guess the exact number of birdies made.
Guesses will only be accepted from January 1, 2010 through 6 p.m. on June
22, 2010. If no one guesses the exact number of birdies made, then the Grand
Prize winner will be the person whose guess is the closest (without going over
the total) to the actual number of birdies made during the tournament.
• No pledge, purchase or donation is necessary to enter the Guess the Birdies contest.
• To request an entry form for the contest, please submit your request by mail to: Travelers
Championship, 90 State House Square, 8th Floor, Hartford, CT 06103.
