Join us for a fun summer game, and we'll even throw in some prizes! It's easy to play. Simply provide an answer to each of the questions on the list, which will be a number. You can find all the answers somewhere in Carowinds. Some may be tricky, so don't forget to double check your answers.

The game runs from July 14th to August 14th. All you have to do to play is be a member of Carowinds Connection, then head to Carowinds and find the answers. Once you have your answers, email them to contest@carowindsconnection.com with the subject: The Carowinds Numbers Game. Make sure you include your Carowinds Connection username in your entry.

The first entry with all the correct answers will win a bonus prize of a one-year associate ACE membership but will still be eligible for the drawings!

The drawings will be held at the end of the contest and you get one entry for each correct answer. For example, if you answer four of the questions correctly, you will have four entries in the drawing. With the exception of the bonus prize, there will only be one prize awarded per person.

Good luck!

This looks like a fun game! Thanks for putting it together! Might be something else fun to do if the lines are long next time I'm there.

I'll give you a count of what you got right. If there is enough interest and participation, there is a good chance there will be more games like this in the future.

Congratulations, LocalYokel! You were the first entry to get all 14 right and get the bonus prize of a one-year ACE membership! PM Jarsh or me and we'll get you taken care of.

Thanks arby! I took a few folks to ride Thunder Road yesterday morning and it was closed. This was a fun way to spend our time while we wandered around and hit other rides. Everyone will be excited to hear we won, even if I am keeping the bonus prize for myself.

The more people who play and the more buzz that gets generated might enable us to get even more prizes in the future. :think:

Thanks for the feedback! That was fun. I played somewhat in conjunction with the ACE scavenger hunt. The Lucky Striker operator looked at me like I was crazy, which is accurate. Still can't get over the calories in the Big Big Gummy Bear!
