Last call to vote for Mason Neck State Park--it has a shot at 1st place and $100,000
MNSP in Lorton is in 2nd place in Coca Cola's"favorite park" contest that began on June 6 and ends Monday at midnight--and Sat. & Sun. votes will be doubled! 2nd place is $50,000 but 1st would be better.
Go to coke.com/parks and sign up to cast 1 vote a day. From there, click on FourSquare and sign up there to cast 5 votes a day. Finally, click on MapMyFitness and sign up to cast 10 votes a day. And you can do MMF retroactively back to June 6 for any day that you did 20 minutes of a "fitness activity", which could just be walking or vacuuming. If you have any difficulty, you can email voteforwildlife@gmail.com for help.
NBC4 has a nice story about the contest: http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/Mason-Neck-State-Park-Close-to-Winning-100000-Grant-From-Coca-Cola-215090671.html
