This Week's Top Contest Entries: International

Through the awesome promotions that run on our platform, we get the opportunity to see some pretty impressive content. Every Friday we dish out BOOM! AWARDS to our favorite contest entries.

BOOM! Award #1

Contest: Concorso LaStampaSnow.it
Entry: Skiing on Sunday Inviata da: Simone Mana

Simone's caption reads (as translated by Google): "The usual queues in the area of the Milky Way on Sunday afternoon" in English. I'll bet it's worth the wait!
La Stampa, an Italian daily newspaper that is well-known and widely distributed in Europe, is offering fantastic ski packages and passes to top entrants who help showcase some of Italy's finest ski resorts in this Facebook Tab photo contest. See Italy's slopes from a local's perspective and learn some italiano while you're at it. La Stampa's agency, CESEN, fully translated Strutta's contest app to Italian!

BOOM! Award #2

Contest: Qatar Airways National Day Photo Contest
Entry: Congratulations and Celebrations !!! by Chandrashekar Angadi

This image has helped to solidify my wanderlust towards the Middle East.
Qatar Airways, in celebration of Qatar National Day, is encouraging everyone to participate in their photo contest by offering amazing prizes to both entrants and voters. Top entrants and 75 participants selected at random will win free Qatar Airways flights and gear from contest sponsors. Qatar Airways created a clean and very shareable page by embedding their Strutta-powered contest into their website and including social share links along the side.

BOOM! Award #3

Contest: Patch Deck the House Contest

Entry: Our Dancing Lights by Brent W

These dancing lights are nothing short of spectacular. Make sure Harry and Marv don't take their Wet Bandits operation to Rochester!
This holiday season, Patch is inviting folks in 860 towns across America to vote on the very Best Decked House, and rewarding community involvement! 860 winning homes will be recognized on Patch's site and 24 national finalists, as voted by the public, will get their December electric bill taken care of. Then, of those 24 finalists, one will earn the whole community with $100,000 for their schools! The nation-wide bracketed competition is being handled through Strutta's API.

What’s a BOOM! AWARD? It’s only the most honourable form of recognition you can get within the Strutta family; it’s about 7 levels above a high-five.
