Shop by bicycle in Te Atatū (Peninsula or South) from March 19th – April 17th, take a photo of your trip, upload it to social media using the hashtag #BuyCycleTeAtatu and be in to win prize money to spend at the shops. We’ll print your photo and include it in the exhibition.
Instructions:
Your photo must be taken between 19th March and 17th April 2022, somewhere in Te Atatū Peninsula or Te Atatū South, showing that you have shopped by bicycle. For example, you and your bike outside a shop; your helmet and your purchase in front of the shop; something else that represents your trip. Be creative!
To make this competition as Covid-safe as possible, we would encourage you to take your photos *outside* the business.
You can enter as many trips/photos as you like and each entry qualifies for the prize draw.
You can add any caption you like to the photo: we may print some or all of these when we print the photos.
Instagram/Twitter
Upload to Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #BuyCycleTeAtatu. Your account must be unlocked/public.
Facebook
Upload to Bike Te Atatū’s Facebook group: facebook.com/groups/biketeatatu/ with the hashtag #BuyCycleTeAtatu. Make sure you are uploading an HD version of the photo.
Exhibition and prizes:
We will print all the photos which are publicly viewable and hashtagged #BuyCycleTeAtatu and display them in an outdoor exhibition.
We will have various vouchers of different values to spend at local businesses. You will be able to choose which vouchers you’d like. We’ll post here once we know the value of the prizes and which businesses have vouchers available.
Prizes will be awarded during the exhibition period. We will let you know via social media if you have won a prize and will arrange which vouchers you’d like. Some prizes will be drawn at random.
