Giveaway Thursday: Win a free Philmont DVD, Blu-ray, or book

What’s the next-best thing to visiting Philmont? That’s easy: Winning Scouting magazine’s Thursday giveaway.

Sure, winning the giveaway won’t fill you with a lifetime of memories like visiting Philmont would. But, hey, at least this week’s winners will be figuratively transported to that hallowed New Mexico site through jaw-dropping pictures and unforgettable stories.

Did I say “winners”? As in more than one? Yep.

This week, three randomly selected entrants will get a prize:

• The first person picked gets the Philmont Documentary Collection Blu-ray. This documentary, which I blogged about in December, captures the magic of Philmont in crystal-clear HD (value: $27).
• The second winner gets the same prize on DVD (value: $25).
• The third lucky entrant will receive Carry On! The Life Adventures of Joe Davis, a book about the legendary former director of camping at Philmont (value: $16).

Seeing Philmont in person is great. But until you’re able to do that, take a visit through Larry McLaughlin’s stellar documentary or James Sundergill’s inspiring book.

Here are the giveaway rules:

• Many will enter; three will win.
• Giveaway ends at 2 p.m. (Eastern Time) on Thursday, March 24.
• One entry per person.
• Submit your entry below and include a working e-mail address. I’ll contact the winners by e-mail to arrange shipment of the prize.
• I’ll use a random-number generator to select the winners after the entry deadline. Good luck!

Sorry, the entry deadline has passed. Here are the winners:

• Philmont Blu-ray: Kurt Larson, Greater Pittsburgh Council
• Philmont DVD: Todd S., San Diego Imperial Council
• Philmont Book: Kelli Cupp, Heart of America Council

Last week’s winner:

The winner of last Thursday’s giveaway was Richard Margrave of the Blue Ridge Mountains Council. I’ll send him the REI Zen sleeping bag. There were 884 entries in the giveaway.
