Aspen Skiing Co. launched a “text-to-win” season pass contest
Aspen Skiing Co. launched a “text-to-win” season pass contest Wednesday.
To enter, text “aspensnowmass” to 32075 and be entered to win a Premier season pass, worth between $1,099 and $1,799.
The contest ends at 9 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 17, the day before the “Super Early” discount period ends and season pass prices increase. The winner will be announced the morning of Sept. 17.
SkiCo asks that people only text in once, as each phone number will only be counted once. Standard message and data charges apply.
Once SkiCo receives a text, it quickly sends out a quick “Thanks!” message.
Other messages will then follow from SkiCo, as part of the purpose of the contest is to gather phone numbers that the company can send text messages to in the future.
The company only keeps the phone number the text is sent from and not other information, according to SkiCo public relations coordinator Meredith McKee.
The messages from SkiCo also include a “Text STOP to be removed” instruction as well, so people can opt off the contact list if they choose.
