Contests Format
Another year of JRPM is here which means another year of contests and fantastic prizes! Once again we have planned four themed weeks for JRPM 2022 with daily activities to try throughout all four weeks. Follow along as much as you would like throughout the month and stay involved by taking photos whenever you participate in the daily activities so that you can post them on social media with the hashtag #CelebrateJRPM for a chance to win some cool prizes.
TO ENTER:
On Twitter & Instagram: Post a photo of you, your municipality, your workplace, or your family doing one of our June is Recreation and Parks Month (JRPM) activities. Include the hashtag #CelebrateJRPM and tag @arpaonline. You can post as many unique photos related to the weekly activities as you would like however, only one of your posts will be entered into the contest. Just remember to include #CelebrateJRPM and @arpaonline in the post otherwise we will not see your post and you will not be entered into the contest. Finally, ensure that the account you are posting from is public so that we can validate your entries! Have fun and we look forward to seeing all of your posts throughout the month of June!!
On Facebook: In the comment section of each JRPM post highlighting each day’s daily activity, post a photo of you, your municipality, your workplace, or your family doing the activity and include the hashtag #CelebrateJRPM. You will only be allowed one entry per day for posting photos so keep in mind that if you decide to post multiple photos throughout the day you will not receive multiple entries. If you would like to earn multiple entries they must come through bonus entries.
In addition, participants are not limited to only using one social media platform when posting photos. This means that individuals with social media accounts on all three platforms (Instagram, Facebook and Twitter) can earn three entries per day (one from each account) by posting a photo of them participating in the daily activity. In addition, the same photo can be posted on all three accounts (although we would also love to see some variety) and it will still count towards multiple entries, just remember to always use #CelebrateJRPM so we see your posts and can give you the necessary entries!
BONUS ENTRIES:
DISCLAIMER: In order to be eligible to receive bonus entries you must FIRST post a photo on social media with the hashtag #CelebrateJRPM of yourself, your municipality, your workplace, your family, etc. taking part in the daily activity otherwise you bonus entries will not be counted. This format is in place to prevent individuals simply liking, sharing or tagging a friend on our posts without actually taking part in the daily activities. With that being said, we look forward to all the wonderful posts throughout the month of June and hope they lead to lots of bonus entries and participation from Albertans in JRPM.

Each like, tag, and retweet/share is worth one (1) additional entry. Multiple tags are permitted & encouraged! You may retweet or share the social media post once per week.
