Prime Time? Sublime! Contest

Are you a “prime timer?” If you can take the senior citizen discount, we’re looking for you! We’re on the search for those heritage makers who are in the prime of their lives, creating memories, and recording their stories for the future. Our Prime Timers contest is all about those who use Heritage Makers Studio to make storybooks and other projects that tell an interesting life story.

This is the prime of your life. You’ve raised your family, you’ve traveled, you’ve lived a fascinating life. And now, it’s time to impart your wisdom and experience to the future generations. There’s no better way to share your life with those you love than with a Heritage Makers storybook.

 

Here’s How It Works:

At Heritage Makers, we know you’ve got a fascinating story to tell…now share it! If you’re a Heritage Makers “prime timer”, please send us your photo, a preview of your project, and a short 200 word essay about “Why I am a heritage maker.”

 

Prize:

There’s a silver lining to getting the seniors discount! If your project and essay are chosen, you’ll receive a FREE 13×11 Legacy storybook from Heritage Makers. This is the perfect size to record your life story!

 

Contest runs from May 1 – 31, 2010. The winner will be announced June 4, 2010.

 


And hey, if you normally pass up the senior citizen discount…just enter our contest anyway and show the youngsters how to do it!

 

Show us your Prime Time projects!

    Do we actually give a senior Citizen discount for anything? I have never heard of this. If so, what, how and when? Or are you saying that if someone is eligible for Sr. Citizen discounts they are eligible to participate in this contest?

    It’s just a fun way of saying if you’re eligible for Senior Citizen discount, we want to see your stuff!

    Is 57 considered senior citizen? Different places and companies have different age range on senior. Please let me know if 57 is qualified as senior citizen so I can submit or participate in the contest.

    Can consultants enter the contest?

    This can be a book that has already been published. We are not setting a specific age limit on “senior citizen.” If you have a book you want to enter, and you are 50…go ahead! 45…sure! 78…of course! We just want to see what kind of books and projects that are out there from some of our “slightly” older heritage makers!

    Consultants may enter as well as clients.

    Lynne, send your book and story in…sounds like what we are looking for!

    What a wonderful contest!!!! I’ve always thought that although HM is perfect for young families to record their “going’s on”, I’m a grandma, and love to do HM projects with and for my grandchildren. I’m certain this is an untapped market for Heritage Makers consultants. Grandparents &/or retirees have the time to make projects, the money to pay for them and a treasure trove of photos so it seems like a natural fit. Thanks for the contest!!

    I’d so love to enter this, but the project I’m working on has a Snoopy cartoon in it (absolutely needed since the cartoon was the inspiration for the figures my husband carved). However, the cartoon was first published in 1970 which is more than 27 years ago. That may mean the copyright has expired. Any possibility this can still qualify?
    Thanks.

    Mary, Unfortunately, Snoopy does have a copyright. We’d love to see your work, so send it in anyway and we’ll take a look!
