I
t was the trip of a lifetime for
Leeann and husband Chuck,
courtesy of Visitortips.com.
Last year, the couple won the
grand prize seven-day cruise to the
Western Caribbean, sponsored by
the online visitor information site.
Visitortips.com brochures pro-
moting the contest were placed in
all 22,000-plus Certified Folder
Display racks, directing travelers to
the Visitortips.com website. There,
users located the matching brochure
online and entered to win.
"The Caribbean was so beautiful,
and we had a fabulous time," said
Leeann, a college instructor from
Bend, Oregon. "We were enjoying
80-degree sunshine-filled days,
while our kids were trying to keep
our pipes from freezing during the
negative 29-degree, bone-chilling
cold nights at home."
The next random winner will be
drawn in January 2015, and will re-
ceive an Apple iPad. The annual
giveaway began in 2011, when the
website was launched.
"It has been such an incredible
opportunity to be able to provide
this experience for one of our lucky
visitors," says Mandi Reitz Steudler,
Visitortips.com Manager of Opera-
tions. "I couldn't have been happier
to tell Leeann that she had won the
Visitortips cruise and she couldn't
have been more appreciative."
