NAQCC 2020 ANNIVERSARY SPRINT PRIZE DRAWING As we have done in the past, our sixteenth anniversary sprint prize drawing will be held in two tiers. In the first tier we will give away our top three prizes, and in the second tier, prizes 4 through 9 will be awarded. There is a throughout-the-year participation requirement for a member to be eligible for a first-tier prize. Here are the specific requirements: 1. Be a member of the NAQCC at the time of the October sprint. 2. Participate in the sprint by making at least one QSO and send in the log by the submission deadline. 3. Earn at least 9 participation points from January through September. Points are earned by participating in our regular monthly sprints and challenges and are recorded in the table seen here. (Up to two participation points can be made up by qualifying and applying for one or two of our regular awards. Click here to see the details about our awards program) Here are the requirements to be eligible for one of the second-tier prizes: 1. Be a member of the NAQCC at the time of the October sprint. 2. Participate in the sprint by making at least one QSO and send in the log by the submission deadline. A spreadsheet will be used to make a list of prize-eligible members. Random numbers, generated by a computer, will be used to select the winners. Once someone has been drawn for a prize they will no longer be eligible for any of the remaining prizes. Non-winners from the first-tier will be included in the second-tier drawing. Prizes will be drawn in the following order: 3 - 2 - 1 . . . 10 - 9 - 8 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 After each winner is drawn we will update this web page with a picture of the prize and the callsign of the winner. This page is designed to refresh itself every 30 seconds so that you can follow the action in almost real-time but if that doesn't work on your browser you might need to refresh the page manually. Email notifications will be sent to all of the winners within a day or two of the drawing and prizes will be mailed out using the addresses listed on QRZ.com unless we receive a request from the winner asking us to use a different address. (The drawing will be held at 8 PM EDT on Friday, Oct. 23 (0000 Z, 10/24 UTC) NAQCC 2020 ANNIVERSARY CHALLENGE PRIZE DRAWING Every member who participates in our regular October Challenge, completes at least one of the words, and submits their report by the required deadline, will automatically be entered in a special anniversary challenge prize drawing. A spreadsheet will be used to make a list of prize-eligible members. Random numbers, generated by a computer, will be used to select the winners. Once someone has been drawn for a prize they will no longer be eligible for any of the remaining prizes. Email notifications will be sent to all of the winners within a day or two of the drawing and prizes will be mailed out using the addresses listed on QRZ.com unless we receive a request from the winner asking us to use a different address.
