Summer season promotions provide readers an opportunity to win

Isn’t it fun to win a prize?

Go to a carnival, win a stuffed animal.

Play a game in an arcade and win a toy.

Sometimes it takes skill to win. Sometimes it’s just luck.

No matter how the win comes about or what the price is, the thrill of winning is there.

We sense this when we email our readers or call them to let them know that they have won a prize in one of our online competitions.

It’s been a busy summer for promotions at The Herald-Mail, and if you haven’t had a chance to participate, here is an overview of the promotions we have on offer.

Information can be found at www.heraldmailmedia.com/contests. Our Waynesboro, Pa., Sister newspaper, The Record Herald, also has promotional information on their website at www.therecordherald.com/contests. Or visit the individual links listed here:
