2009 Photo/Video Contest

Here is your chance to win a "Dream Travel Video System" and an exciting 9-Day Holiday for Two in Revelstoke and Eagle Pass, BC.

Our lucky winners will stay for one night at the newly renovated Gateway Inn. And you’ll thoroughly enjoy two nights accommodation in each of The Regent Inn (Honeymoon Suite), and The Amble Inn (B&B in the romantic Royal Suite) and at the Mulvehill Creek Wilderness Inn.

Be prepared for adventure!

Your prize package includes a two-night catered summer hiking trip at a luxury backcountry lodge in the southern Monashee Mountains, for two guests compliments of SOL Mountain Touring. Plus, the Revelstoke Golf Course will set you up for two rounds of golf (with a power cart). You’ll enjoy a cool "brewski" on your tasting tour of the Mt. Begbie Brewing Company and a cool experience for 2 with Apex Rafting.

In addition you will receive a hard cover copy of Revelstoke: History and Heritage by Ruby M. Nobbs. And inside that book we have placed, free passes to The Enchanted Forest, SkyTrek, the Railway Museum, the Nickelodeum Museum, the Revelstoke Museum and Archives, and a self-guided tour of the ghost town at the Three Valley Lake Château.

Sounds like the perfect family holiday, doesn’t it? Well there’s more, you’ll have to eat!

Chalet Bakery is offering breakfast for two, and you’ll receive a $100 gift certificate from Bad Pauls Roadhouse. You’ll enjoy breakfast and lunch for three at Frontier Fred’s Restaurant, a $25 gift certificate from Woolsey Creek Bistro, and a $50 certificate at Kawakubo (Japanese).

To help you preserve your memories of this fabulous holiday, Heritage Makers will create for you a digital storybook in hardcover. Just remember to wear your great new ball caps from Eagle Pass Heliskiing when you’re taking your pictures.

Oh, speaking of pics, you’ll need a new camera!

So The Camera Store in Calgary has agreed to provide the winner with a brand new “Dream Travel Video System” including a High Definition video camera, tripod, carrying case, & instructional DVD, valued at over $1800.00.

Assembling this prize package would not have been possible without the kind assistance of Meghan Graceffo at Revelstoke Tourism and Ingrid Boaz of IB Consulting.
