OT Treasure Hunt underway
By PATRICK FORD NEWS EDITOR,

First Family FCU, 3 Bears have keys available

The Okmulgee Times Treasure Hunt is officially underway and some lucky resident could be the winner of a bounty of prizes from area merchants, and $500 in cash provided by First Family Federal Credit Union.

Beginning today, visit and shop the participating businesses, and while there, collect a key.

For those in the Henryetta area, keys are available from First Family Federal Credit Union, and at 3 Bears Sales & Rentals, 320 Bollinger Ave.

Keep those keys safe, and then beginning Wednesday, Aug. 2 you can try your key on the treasure chest lock located at the Okmulgee Times, 320 W. 6th Street.

The first person to open the chest will win the cash and prizes donated by the local retailers.

Participants may also stop by the Times office and receive one key per day. Participating businesses will distribute keys based on their own individual promotions.

In Friday’s issue of the Times, participating merchant’s advertisements will be marked with a special key symbol.

Key attempts beginning Aug. 2 can only be made during regular business hours Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Only one key can be attempted at a time.

If there is a line and you have multiple keys, you may only try one key and then move to the back of the line to attempt your additional keys.

If the lock has not been opened by 3 p.m. Aug. 16 a drawing will take place from a list of non-winning key holders.

Contestants must be 18 years or older to play. Chances of winning depend on the total number of keys distributed.

A winner is guaranteed, because if the lock is not opened by a winning key during the promotion, a winner will be drawn from the second-chance drawing entries.

Okmulgee Times employees and their immediate family members are not eligible to win. Participating sponsors may go to another participating business and get keys to play.

The Okmulgee Times assumes no responsibility for accidents or injuries sustained by participants. Violators may be disqualified and forfeit any claim to the prize.

Participating merchants in Henryetta again are:

• First Family Federal Credit Union

• 3 Bears Sales & Rental Merchants in Okmulgee and Beggs include:

• Beggs General Store • Central Perk Coffee Shop

• El Avocado’s

• Five: 7 Equipment

• Herbal Cure

• Impact Rehab & Wellness

• Khis Daq’s

• Main Street Customz

• The Nail Room

• Neal’s Homestore • OCHS Thrift Store

• Sharpe’s

• Windy Chevrolet

• YMCA
