For the first time ever, a few lucky Bridge Day guests will tandem BASE jump from the New River Gorge Bridge on Bridge Day 2011. One of those lucky jumpers could be you.

Here’s the deal: we’re giving away one tandem jump, and you may have just what it takes to win the prize.

Create a video detailing why you (or someone that you know) should win the Bridge Day jump.  Get creative.  Give us your best sales pitch.  Tug at our heartstrings.  Whatever works for you.  The videos will be uploaded to the Official Bridge Day Facebook Page, where Bridge Day fans will vote for the winning video.

But that’s not all.  In addition to the jump (which is an amazing prize in itself), Subaru will donate $1,000.00 to the charity of your choice.  So in that video, tell us about your charity and why they should receive the cash prize.

There are a few rules and guidelines, per Vertical Visions, that  you’ll have to abide by to be cleared to jump:

• Must be at least 18 years of age
• Must weigh 200 lbs. or less and be capable of an active lifestyle
• Must wear athletic shoes or hiking boots
• Must sign our liability waiver

Entrants can upload videos from September 2 - September 30 at the Official Bridge Day Facebook page.  Voting will begin on October 1.  The winner will be announced on October 6.  The jump will take place on Bridge Day, October 15, 2011.

So get filming!  We can’t wait to see what you come up with.

And when you begin to upload your videos for the contest, keep in mind that you may need to adjust some privacy settings in Facebook to complete the process.  This tutorial will give you the easy steps you'll need to take to change those settings.

Any questions?
