Anniversary Giveaway!


Akron Empire's Anniversary Giveaway
by Joanna Wilson

It's the two month anniversary of Akron Empire and we're celebrating!  Since our first blog post was March 12 about the Harry London/Fannie May chocolate factory and retail store, I thought it would be a fun way to celebrate on May 12th with a giveaway of Fannie May chocolates.  Who wants some free chocolate?

Help us celebrate our anniversary by entering the giveaway.  There are two chances to win.  Each winner will receive a half pound of assorted chocolates from the Fannie May retail store located in Hudson, Ohio.  Here's how you can enter to win:

1)  The first winner will be randomly selected from qualified entries here on the blog.  Make sure you follow the blog through GFC (Google Friend Connect)--along the right hand side -------->
Then post one comment below telling us which of the past two months worth of posts was your favorite.

2) The second winner will be randomly selected from qualified entries on Twitter.  Make sure you follow us on Twitter (@AkronEmpire).  Then enter the giveaway by tweeting @AkronEmpire once about which of the blog posts in the last two months was your favorite.

You may enter the contest both on the blog and on Twitter.   Open to North American residents only.

Contest ends Tuesday, May 15th at noon (ET).  Good luck!  We'll have more giveaways coming soon.  And, Happy Anniversary to Akron Empire!

  1. I LOVE Chocolate! Thanks for doing a giveaway! My favorite post was about the craft shows in May. I'm a bit biased as my place- Portage Trail Barn is mentioned. Great blog!

  2. I liked the post about Free Comic Book Day - but I am also biased 'cause I love JC's!

  4. I loved the post about Good Life. I'm interested in getting a tattoo at some point, and that post was very informative for a first-timer!

  5. I can't choose just one, but my 3 faves were the Thirsty Dog, the Howard Finster Exhibit, and Harry London Chocolates in Canton. Keep up the great work guys! Akron has so much to be proud of!
