So my group and I were bowling at Boondocks Fun Center in Kaysville last month, and saw a contest by ABC4 News and Bullfrog Spas, that said (paraphrasing) - create a 30-second video showing why Boondocks is a fun place to hang out. The grand-place winner will win a $10,000 hot-tub from Bullfrog Spas, and the 30-second video will be used on ABC4 as a commerical.
We thought what the heck....and it shouldn't take too long. We grabbed our GoPros and filmed the various activities, and Jeff our video editor, spliced all the vids into 30seconds, and added some text to it. This probably took a grand-total of 2hours, including editing.
We gave it a reasonable shot, but we were thinking we were NOT going to win at all. We would be beat my some 5yr-old kid saying "I love boondocks, it is fun, and I love my mom and dad....", so we thought.
And the judging would be done by online-voting.
So over this last weekend, I just found out that we won! Apparently, we won by default since we were the only contestants.:bootyshake::bootyshake: ha ha.

Just spreading the good news!
So...anyone down for a hot-tub party??! :2thumbs:
