Cabela’s Announces First Round of Winners of Fifty Years Fifty Trucks Sweepstakes
Among other prizes, 32 Chevy trucks remain; entries will be accepted through the end of the year.

SIDNEY, Neb. –-(Ammoland.com)- As part of a yearlong celebration of its 50th anniversary, Cabela’s announced today the first 18 winners of its Fifty Years Fifty Trucks Sweepstakes.

Each of the following winners will receive a well-equipped 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD LT four-wheel drive, extended cab pickup truck (MSRP $37,385):

The sweepstakes continues through the end of the year and customers can enter manually online or in stores or automatically by making purchases with their Cabela’s CLUB Visa card. Among other prizes, 32 trucks remain unclaimed.

Entry methods are weighted equally, though participants using their Cabela’s CLUB Visa card automatically receive two entries per purchase at Cabela’s stores and one entry per any other purchase made with the card.

One truck winner placed a single manual entry. Others entered the sweepstakes more often, like the winner who decided to sign up based on a promising fortune cookie prediction, but they all said their good luck came as a surprise nonetheless.

“This sweepstakes is our biggest promotion ever, and it’s an exciting way to recognize our customers for their outstanding loyalty,” said Cabela’s Chief Executive Officer Tommy Millner. “It’s thanks to them Cabela’s is still going strong 50 years after starting out as a small mail-order company run from a kitchen table in a tiny Nebraska town. And just like our anniversary celebration, the sweepstakes will continue all year because we want to give all our customers the chance to sign up and win.”

In the next few weeks, eight Cabela’s stores will host giveaway celebrations, which will include the presentation of a truck to a local winner from the first round of drawings.

Another drawing of 24 more winners will be held in September, followed by one truck giveaway a week for the last eight weeks of the year. For rules, regulations and information about how to enter Cabela’s Fifty Years, Fifty Trucks Sweepstakes, visit: https://www.cabelas.com/sweeps
