Every Friday during the contest period, Freedom will challenge the public to submit entries according to the week’s theme on social media. Entrants will be placed into a weekly drawing to win a prize. During the final week, weekly winners, along with other selected finalists, will have an opportunity to compete for a final grand prize.
“As many families are slowly starting to emerge from quarantine, we wanted to find a way celebrate those that made the best out of a challenging time,” said Mike MacPherson, President and CEO of Freedom. “We also know that many people’s vacation plans have been impacted, but there are still opportunities to enjoy the summer and have a little fun. #FreedomSpiritWeeks is our small way of recognizing the positivity and joy each day brings, and celebrating the great experiences that are still to be had this summer.”
