A contest is being held here for military members and their families.  For those of you who do not know, ArmyMWR.com runs a promotional site to feature the Armed Forces Recreation Centers (AFRC) and is holding a contest until the end of August to increase attendence.  Thanks to my fellow officer, LTC Mike for finding this one for me.  Here are the relevant contest conditions:
