Sue Gillenwater of Eagle Rock, Mo., claims she never had “much luck.”
However, her luck changed for the better in a big way recently
when she was named the winner of a new Hornet travel trailer in Keystone
RV Co.’s Live Your Dreams national sweepstakes promotion.
“When I entered the Keystone sweepstakes online, I never expected
to win. I’ve never won anything before,” said Gillenwater, when notified
of her good fortune. “This is hard to believe. I’m thankful. This
really makes my day. You can’t imagine!”
Sue and her husband Wayne are retired Air Force vets who now plan to “live their dream.”
She added, “We camped with our children when they were young,
graduating from tents to pop-up campers. But as the children grew and
job responsibilities tied us down, we no longer had the opportunity to
take off and travel. We really missed RVing and were looking forward to
enjoying it again, someday; winning this new Keystone Hornet means that
someday is now. “
Keystone RV Co. President Bob Martin credits the Live Your Dreams
promotion for driving increased traffic to the Keystone web site and
generating additional leads for Keystone dealers. According to Martin,
“Our dealers are taking advantage of strong consumer interest in
Keystone products to reach out to more prospective customers and close
more sales.” Martin added, “Our web site traffic is reaching new highs
while we see a strong upturn in retail sales.
Launched on March 11, the new Keystone Live Your Dreams RV
sweepstakes will target more than 5 million current and prospective RV
owners each month through RV websites, trade magazines and retail shows.
The sweepstakes is being promoted in Trailer Life and Highways
magazines, both Affinity Group Inc. publications, and on related
websites.
In addition to the Hornet, three additional Keystone RVs will be
given away in the coming months with the final prize, a Keystone Montana
Mountaineer, awarded in March 2011. RV enthusiasts can enter to win at www.keystonervgiveaway.com.
