Ultimate IZEAFest 2009 Prize Pack
Ultimate IZEAFest 2009 Prize Pack

I like to do things in a big and bold way. Ted Murphy does as well and IZEAFest 2009 is the biggest and boldest yet. Imagine 3 days and 300 bloggers invading SeaWorld (and as I recently learned Busch Gardens Tampa!) to learn how to be better bloggers, win prizes, party and even hang with RealShamu! That is what you can do if you attend IZEAFest 2009.

I mentioned Busch Gardens, check out this latest announcement for details.

Yes, you get to go to not 1 but 2 Awesome Theme Parks all for the price of 1 IZEAFest ticket! Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream, Here We Come!

What’s that you say? You don’t have an IZEAFest 2009 ticket? Never Fear!

BenSpark.com along with IZEA, MarketLeverage, XShot Pix, ZINK Imaging, Martha Decker, EBOOST, brite-View, The Dirty Shirt, Flipbac and PokenGirl are Here to Help!

I’ve teamed up with these great sponsors to give some lucky winners amazing prizes. One lucky winner is going to hang with me at IZEAFest 2009 and go on a very special outing and that lucky person will also receive the Ultimate IZEAFest 2009 Grand Prize Pack! But never fear I have prizes for two runner ups as well.

I Wanna have a Happy Blu-Year!

If you have not entered the Its a BluWorld then you are most certainly missing out on a great opportunity. There are five great prizes up for grabs but there is one that I would really love to win and that is the Happy Blu-Year one. The winner of that gets to go to New York City for New Year’s Eve.

Every year we watch the giant party that happens in New York on television. I would certainly love to be at that party at least once in my lifetime. It would be one of those bucket list type of items and truly an amazing time. Not only would I be able to see the ball drop and party in the streets of New York at midnight, Allison and I would be able to also take a helicopter ride around the city, that would be simply incredible to do and I could take some amazing photos.

If we won this contest I’m pretty sure I’d throw my own little New Year’s countdown celebration. I’d pop some champagne or more appropriate for this situation, I’d pop a can of BluFrog after a spirited 10 down to 1 countdown.

The contest prizes are below. I encourage you to enter the contest and leave me a comment telling me what prize you want and why. Good luck to you.
