Chance to Win an iPad 2 by Playing the "Iowa Caucus Countdown"
Posted: Tuesday, November 01, 2011

The Greater Des Moines Partnership and the Greater Des Moines Convention and Visitors Bureau developed a Facebook game that challenges people’s knowledge of Iowa, the Caucuses, and business and tourism opportunities of the region. Starting November 1, players of the game can be entered to win an iPad 2.
The Iowa Caucus Countdown was established to help promote the region during the Iowa Caucuses through a fun and interactive tool. This game was custom made by local developers Shift Interactive and Lava Row. The game features new themes and questions each month and players earn badges and post to their Facebook page to demonstrate their participation. Once a player earns all the badges, they will be automatically entered into the drawing.
The Iowa Caucus Countdown will be inviting people to play the upcoming month’s quizzes and play the past games for a chance to win an iPad 2. To be entered in the drawing for the iPad 2, players will need to play each month’s set of questions, March to January. After playing all 11 games, one will be entered in a drawing for the popular tablet computer regardless of their scores. Go to www.facebook.com/GreaterDesMoinesPartnership to play the games and enter to win.
