Win trips, cash, a new KIA and more at Fort McDowell this Thursday

Tickets to a sold-out Michael Jackson concert (in London!), a fabulous New York City getaway for two plus a brand-new KIA automobile will all be given away this Thursday, June 25th, at Fort McDowell Casino. Visitors to the Fort have been earning entries all month by playing their favorite games and this Thursday will be the day to cash those entries in for the chance to win one of an extensive array of really cool prizes. Here’s what’s on tap for June’s “big give:”

The day-long event starts at 10:25 am when the first four $250 cash prizes will be awarded as part of the casino’s “25th Anniversary Cash & Cars Give-A-Way” promotion. More cash drawings will be held at 1:25 pm, 4:25 pm, and 7:25 pm. The big car giveaway will take place following the 7:25 pm cash giveaway when three players will be chosen to compete on special slot machines to see who can score the most points and drive away in a brand new KIA .

“Michael Jackson Concert Package” – Beginning at 9:25 pm, eight names will be drawn from the entries submitted for a chance to compete in a slot tournament with the top prize of a trip to London, England to attend a Michael Jackson Concert on July 26, 2009. Three rounds of play on designated slot machines will determine the winner who will receive round trip airfare from Phoenix to London Heathrow plus hotel accommodations for two nights at the Marriot West India Quay and one pair of tickets to the Michael Jackson concert at the o2 Entertainment Complex in London. This contest is co-sponsored by radio station Movin’ 97.5 FM. (Participants must have a current valid passport to be eligible for the contest.)

At 5:25 pm, the drawing begins to determine the winner of a “trip for two” package to New York City in the casino’s “She’s Got the Look” promotion co-sponsored by Cox Media. Three player names will be drawn from all entries for a chance to play slots to determine who will receive a three day/two night trip for the winner and one guest to New York, NY. The grand prize includes round-trip air transportation between Phoenix, Arizona and New York, NY; NYC hotel accommodations for two nights, ground transportation to/from the airport in New York; a hair and make-up consultation (for the grand prize winner and his/her guest); and a total of $1,000 in spending money.
