Everyone loves dry ice, particularly this time of year. It makes tailgates cooler, camping easier and (of course) Halloween spookier. This year,
Penguin Brand Dry Ice is encouraging dry ice fans to get out their cameras and snap a photo of their coolest, spookiest, most innovative uses for dry ice for a chance to win $1,000!
The contest is being run off of the Facebook page at http://facebook.com/dryiceideas and puts the fans in charge of selecting the finalists. Once we receive all the photos (and optional videos for that matter) on November 1st, we’ll turn on the voting and the 10 photos with the most votes will move on to the final round. In addition to the grand prize of $1,000, we also have first and second runner up prizes of $500 and $250, respectively.
Throughout the campaign, we’ll be featuring some of the best entries on our blog at http://dryiceideas.com where users can also find safe handling guides and plenty of ideas throughout the month!
