TLC SURVIVOR CHALLENGE IS BACK – WITH A TWIST!

WHAT IS IT?

A game of elimination with the potential to win lots of wine & more! That’s right this time around we have added a twist! Wine not your thing, maybe its craft beer or a favorite spirit? This year the winners will be awarded liquor store gift cards so they can make their own choice!

WHAT CAN YOU WIN?

NEW THIS YEAR!! As a team member, you have TEN chances to win a boat- load of wine, spirits and more! In the end the winners get to choose.

HOW DOES TLC WIN?

Fifty percent of the registration fee supports TLC!

HOW DO YOU PLAY?

Join a team or pick 5 friends and start your own team. Each team must appoint a Team Captain who will keep the other team members informed.

Each team must have 6 members and they will give their team a fun name. TLC will assign each team member their own unique number once we receive the Team Registration Form.

Your team will not be registered until ALL team members have submitted their $40 registration fee. No exceptions!

Your team captain will collect your money and email addresses.

Your registration fee and email address must be submitted to your team captain no later than Wednesday, October 21st, 2020. (Challenge launch date is Friday, September 18th, 2020)

Draws will begin on Monday, October 26th, 2020 and will be held daily until the final draws are made on Friday, October 30th, 2020.

The team Captains will receive an email each draw day showing the standing of each team. The team captain will then forward the information on to their individual team members.

As long as one member of your team remains you are still in the game – you have six chances to win!

The first team to be eliminated will be our “Biggest Losers” and each team member will receive two $20 liquor store gift card.

TEAM LEADER INSTRUCTION SHEET

Thank you for putting together a team(s) for The Lending Cupboard’s Survivor fundraiser. The more teams that we have, the larger the prize AND the more money The Lending Cupboard (TLC) receives to further support our community!

The following is a list of the things that are required of you as the Team Captain in your group of six people:

  • You and your members should pick a fun name for your team. Put this name in the designated spot on the registration form, along with your name as Team Captain.
  • Make sure you have correct email addresses for all team members as this is the way that you will communicate.
  • Please collect $40 from each team member.
  • The $240 total team entrance fee can be paid via cash, debit, Visa or MasterCard or cheque made payable to The Lending Cupboard.
  • If paying by debit, Visa or MasterCard – it might be easier for you as team captain to have your members pay you, than you could pay TLC via your desired card.
  • Team members need to have their money to you by Wednesday, October 21, 2020 at the latest (the sooner the better). Once you have collected the registration fees you must deliver the full package to The Lending Cupboard by Wednesday, October 21, 2020 at the latest. We are open Monday, Wednesday & Friday from 9:00am to 4:30pm for drop off. Please ask for Dawna, Janice or Kathy when you do your drop off.

  • Once the draws start on October 26th, 2020 as team captain you will be mailed the results after each draw – you can then forward the results onto your team members so they can follow along.
  • The final draw date is Friday, October 30th, 2020. This is the day that the winners will be announced! If your team is a winning team, you will be notified of the date and location where you will be presented all the cards that your team has won!
