"We Hear You America" Sweepstakes – Reader’s Digest
Fans of Victor – Here’s another opportunity to “cheer” (cast your vote) for the City of Victor and perhaps win a family roadtrip in a brand new vehicle or be one of 10 cash winners of $500!
Reader’s Digest is awarding more than $5 Million in funds and promotional support to 100 towns and cities across the U.S. to promote things like tourism, civic works, job growth, and economic development. This grass roots campaign is named “We Hear You America.”
You can enter this Sweepstakes via the Internet. Please go to http://www.rd.com/wehearyouamerica and follow the online entry instructions. When you enter and vote for Victor you will also be entering yourself to win one of the personal prizes and the chance for Victor to win one of the municipal prizes. You will be instructed to enter your name, address, and email address and “cheer” (vote) for Victor, which you’ll have to type in. There is a limit of 10 entries per person per day so the more often you vote, the better chance Victor will have to win in its population category and you'll get additional opportunities for your chance to win the new vehicle or the cash prize.

VICTOR IN RUNNING FOR
“COOLEST SMALL TOWN”
Here’s an opportunity for those of you who want to see Victor put on the map as the “coolest small town” via a competition being sponsored by Budget Travel magazine. A group of 80 small towns were originally nominated and Victor made the cut down to the final 20 potential winners of this cool honor. Categories to choose from have been broken down to small towns in The Northeast, The South, The Midwest and The West.
We are in the running against six other small towns throughout the West and Mayor Fitzgerald, City Council and City Staff are asking that you go to the following website address – http://www.budgettravel.com/bt-srv/coolestsmalltowns/CST2011.html and cast your vote to let the rest of the United States know we’re here and we’re “cool.”
As we didn’t realize we were actually in the running - we are a bit behind currently and would appreciate all our great citizens, all Teton Valley residents and “fans” of our sweet city - clicking on the above link and making your vote count.
How to vote – after clicking on the link – place your cursor over the star designating Victor. Click on the star and an “add to ballot” box will appear in the left lower corner, click on that – then the words “Victor, ID” will appear in red under “The West” category designation. Click on “Cast Your Ballot” and then the voting process will be completed. An added bonus is that you can vote for Victor every 5 hours!!
The opportunity to vote continues through February 11, 2011 with the TOP TEN results from the overall voting being revealed in the September 2011 issue of Budget Travel. Forward the above link to family and friends who have visited our great city and know what a “cool” place Victor truly is and ask that they help us achieve this awesome distinction.
Thank you and let’s get the word out to all who might be looking for an opportunity for “practice” voting for the next general elections and/or appreciate the opportunity to cast multiple votes for VICTOR!! We know we’re cool. . . but we’d love the rest of the country to know just how cool!!
