Adventures in Odyssey Scavenger Hunt
August 21-23, 2010
On
August 21, 2010,
we hosted a special Adventures in Odyssey Scavenger
Hunt, in which fans could compete in a
10-question trivia challenge to win the
Novacom collection. 28 people stepped up to the
challenge, which we thought was a good turnout
considering the difficulty of questions in the contest.
We required a perfect score of 10 out of 10 correct
answers since there were so few questions. The first
three entries we received with perfect scores earned the
prize. And now... it's time to reveal our winners!
A big congratulations goes
out to our winners:
-
1st Place
—
Jordan B. (Mokena, Illinois)
-
2nd Place
— Julia J. (Sanger, California)
-
3rd Place
—
Joshua S. (Bartlesville, Oklahoma)
Jordan, Julia, and Joshua will
receive a free copy of
Novacom
from The Odyssey Scoop in the coming days! Winners, be
watching your email inbox as we will be contacting you
really soon to get your prize out to you. Once again, a
big thanks to Tyndale House Publishers for providing
this valuable prize.
If you participated in the contest and would like to view the answer
key (we know some of you searched for a long time to
find the answers!), you can do that below.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to participate and
congratulations to our winners! Stay tuned for more contests in the future.
