Aboriginal Day of Wellness Social Media Scavenger Hunt

6/17/2014


Welcome to the FNHA Aboriginal Day of Wellness Social Media Scavenger Hunt! The Social Media Scavenger Hunt is designed to showcase photos and video related to the 99 events happening across BC on Aboriginal Day!

Utilizing FNHA's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts, our communications team will be monitoring, commenting, sharing, and driving the social media contest over the duration of the events. We will use the hashtag #fnhawellness.

Contest Duration

The Scavenger Hunt contest will begin on June 18th and end at midnight on June 23rd.  For participants and communities that would like to submit pictures and videos for the contest that do not have access to the Internet, alternative considerations will be made. Contact active@fnha.ca for more information.

Criteria

Content will be judged for creativity and originality of the image uploaded.

Content will also be judged for quotes and more information given with an image. Participants will be entered to win one of the grand prizes: One of several FitBit Flex activity trackers. An activity tracker keeps track of your steps, sleep and distance walked.
