CAMP ZAMA – This season, the Camp Zama PX is inviting shoppers to spread cheer by sharing their most memorable holiday moments for a chance to win big in the Mars Holiday Storybook Essay Contest.

From Oct. 31 through Dec. 25, authorized Exchange shoppers can submit an original essay in English—500 words or fewer—about a favorite childhood or recent holiday memory. Entries must be emailed to sweepstakes@aafes.com with “Favorite Holiday Story” on the subject line.

Three winners will each receive a $1,000 Exchange gift card, with winners to be announced no later than Feb. 13.

“Every holiday season brings stories that connect us,” Camp Zama Exchange General Manager Nick Cucinello said. “Through this contest, the Camp Zama PX is honored to celebrate those moments of joy and give the community a chance to win great prizes for sharing their stories.”

No purchase is necessary to enter. Department of War and Coast Guard civilians and honorably discharged Veterans who have confirmed their eligibility to shop online may also enter. Veterans can visit https://aafes.media/paveterans to learn more about their shopping benefit. DoD civilians can visit https://aafes.media/cacbenefitspa.
