Travel Iowa: Maquoketa Caves
Summer is officially here in all of its glory; from potlucks and bbq's with friends and family, to pool days and vacations that will leave us refreshed and ready to tackle work for a few more months. No matter how you spend the warmest months of the year, I am sure you can agree that there is nothing like the sweet splendor of summer.
This post has been sponsored by the Iowa lottery but all opinions are my own.
This year, finances are understandably a little tighter. Gas prices are up, cost of living is up, and now more than ever, a lottery win is just the thing to soothe the sting of the cost of living, or the summer sun. If the cost of everything has you rethinking your plans to hit the road and explore America, the Iowa lottery has you covered with their latest summer promotion. This is the perfect time to Think Outside and Explore Iowa!
This summer be sure to grab some $5 scratch offs from The Explore Iowa game and try your luck at an instant win. This time around, even if you don't win immediate cash to fund your adventures, you can send those non-winning tickets in and you might be one of the lucky second chance winners in this awesome summer promo.
There are going to be 9 lucky winners of a Polaris gift certificate valued at a HOT $25k. 15 winners will score a prize valued at $5,000. The fun and chances to win don't stop there. One winner can win a $50k cash prize, and one winner will win a $50,000 gift certificate. Just imagine all the exploring you could do with your favorite people with a new Polaris vehicle or with some cold hard cash! Talk about summer fun just waiting to happen!
I know that is a lot of winning going on, and it keeps getting better. You can decide which contest you want your ticket entries to go for! So you are sure to have the chance of a lifetime to win something that will inspire you to head outdoors and get exploring all that the lovely state of Iowa has to offer!
This summer, my family will be heading out to Maquoketa Caves State Park. If you have never been, this is located in Maquoketa, Iowa and features a six mile trail system which is perfect for exploring with family or friends. After you work up a sweat hiking, you will appreciate the dancehall cave, which is HUGE! This state park is a great place to explore a cave, stretch your legs, and enjoy some summer fun with your favorite people!
While we are en route, we will be stopping for gas, picnic food and to stretch our legs, so naturally I will be grabbing a few $5 Explore Iowa tickets to see if we can pick a winning ticket, or if we could be the winners of a Polaris prize or cash prize in the drawing.
This promotion is valid from May 5, 2022 to September 13, 2022. This is a great time to sign up for the Iowa Lottery VIP Club, and start trying your luck a second time with your non-winning scratch offs. Don't forget to play the Explore Iowa $5 tickets and enter in the awesome contest for some serious Polaris prize packs!
