One Passport Prize per entrant: No entrant may win more than one Passport Prize during the Sweepstakes Period. For example, if an entrant wins a Passport Prize of $500 United Airlines MileagePlus TravelBank credit for the 64 County Challenge Passport, she is not eligible to win an additional Passport Prize for the 64 County Challenge Passport, nor is she eligible to win a Passport Prize for a different Passport variety.
Grand Prize: The Grand Prize winner will be selected from all entries submitted during the Sweepstakes Period. Any entrant is eligible to win the Grand Prize, including entrants who won a Passport Prize.
All expenses relating to acceptance of a prize, including but not limited to federal, state, or other tax liabilities, are the sole responsibility of the winner.
TO ENTER: There are two (2) ways to enter the Sweepstakes:
Passport Check-Ins: During the Sweepstakes Period, sign up for one or more Passport varieties from the Colorado Passport program. Use your mobile device to check in at participating attractions featured in the Passports. To check in, enable your location on your mobile device and tap “Check-In” once you’re at a participating attraction. Once you’ve checked in successfully, a gray checkmark will appear on your device screen. You may check in once at every Passport attraction.
Each check-in counts as one entry for a Passport Prize for each Passport variety, and one entry for the Grand Prize. For example, checking in at an attraction included in the 64 County Challenge Passport counts as an entry to win a prize for that Passport variety.
All check-ins are subject to verification by Sponsor or Administrator.
Mail-In: To enter by mail, print your first and last name, e-mail address, street address (P.O. boxes not accepted), city, state, zip code, telephone number, indicate the Passport variety for which you are submitting an entry, and mail it to Miles Partnership LLLP, Attn. Colorado Passport Sweepstakes, 404 S. Upham Street, Lakewood, CO 80226. Mail-in entries must contain at least first and last name, telephone number or an email address to be valid. The number of mail-in entries per individual, per Passport is limited to the number of merchants or attractions featured in each Passport. Mail-in entries must be received by 5:00 p.m. the day each Passport Variety closes as listed above. Once submitted, all entries become the exclusive property of Sponsor and will not be acknowledged nor will they be returned. No facsimiles or electronic entries allowed.
POTENTIAL WINNER NOTIFICATION: Sponsor or Administrator will notify the potential winners of the Grand Prize and Passport Prizes (“Potential Prize Winners”) promptly after the Sweepstakes Period using the contact information provided during entry. A Potential Prize Winner must respond to Sponsor or Administrator within fourteen (14) business days. The Potential Prize Winners shall be subject to eligibility verification and compliance with these Official Rules. If any required information is not returned by the requested due date or if any notification is returned as undeliverable, then the Grand Prize or Passport Prizes may be forfeited and an alternate Grand Prize Winner and/or Passport Prize Winner may be selected randomly from the remaining entries. Sponsor and Administrator will not be obligated to pursue more than one (1) alternate winner for each Prize.

GENERAL CONDITIONS: Entrants agree to be bound by these Official Rules and by the decisions of Sponsor and Administrator, which are final and binding in all respects. Sponsor reserves the right to change these Official Rules at any time, in its discretion, and to modify, suspend, or cancel the Sweepstakes, or any entrant’s participation in the Sweepstakes should viruses, bugs, unauthorized human intervention, public disruptions, or other causes beyond Sponsor’s reasonable control affect the administration, security, safety or proper play of the Sweepstakes, or Sponsor otherwise becomes (in its discretion) incapable of running the Sweepstakes as planned.
Entrants who violate these Official Rules, violate any law, rule, or regulation in connection with participation in the Sweepstakes, tamper with the operation of the Sweepstakes or engage in any conduct that is detrimental or unfair to Sponsor or any other entrant (as determined in Sponsor’s discretion) are subject to disqualification from the Sweepstakes. In particular, Sponsor and/or Administrator reserve the right to refuse to award a prize to an entrant if, in Sponsor’s and/or Administrator’s sole discretion, Sponsor and/or Administrator suspect that an entrant engaged in any fraudulent activity, hacking, technical manipulation, or abuse of the program, including but not limited to (1) submitting false or inaccurate check-in information, (2) attempting to check-in remotely (not physically present at a Passport attraction), or (3) using automated methods to accrue check-ins. Any decision by Sponsor and/or Administrator to disqualify any entrant or withhold any prize is final and binding.
ADDITIONAL TERMS: No prize substitution or transfer of prizes will be permitted, except by Sponsor or Administrator, in their sole discretion. Sponsor reserves the right to award a prize of equal or greater value in the event the stated prize is unavailable.

Sponsor and/or Administrator also reserve the right to review and/or disqualify any and all entries deemed by Sponsor or Administrator, in their sole discretion, to be inappropriate, offensive, or otherwise unacceptable.
Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules will not constitute a waiver of that provision. Any provision of these Official Rules deemed unenforceable will be enforced to the extent permissible, and the remainder of these Official Rules will remain in effect. The use of the terms “include” or “including” in these Official Rules is illustrative and not limiting.
