CPG event staff will scour the grounds at each location, and will hand out up to 25 Golden Tickets during the week.
The contest culminates in Charlotte on Saturday, June 7th, when one name will be randomly drawn to win a product certificate valued at $10,000. It can be used on a single purchase across any of the COMP Performance Group™ brands. Participants must be present to win, and all ticketholders must have their tickets in hand at the drawing.
