EW SHOW DAILY 34 ASCRS News Today Saturday, May 7, 2016 and there are 3 ways attendees can register to win. The goods Giveaways will start with a drawing for an Apple Watch today at 4:45 p.m. in the Tesla booth, located at the back of the Exhibit Hall. The Apple Watch, which only became available a year ago, conveniently displays notifications on the wearer's wrist—no more digging through your purse or reaching into your pocket to read an email, answer a text, or track your activity. Tomorrow at 4:45 p.m. at the same location, a drawing will be held for a hotel suite and transporta- tion to and from the airport for the 2017 ASCRS•ASOA Symposium & Congress in Los Angeles. Finally, on Monday, May 9 at 4:45 p.m. in the Exhibit Hall, 1 lucky participant's name will be drawn for the all-electric, deep blue Tesla Model S 90D. The car can go from 0 to 60 mph in less than 5 seconds and has a range of 294 miles per charge. It also boasts all-wheel drive and an autopilot feature to aid in steering, changing lanes, and parking. How to enter There are 3 ways attendees can obtain drawing tickets, which they should fill out with their name and badge number and place in the raffle drum at the Tesla booth in the Exhibit Hall. 1. Visit a participating exhibitor's booth. 2. Make a voluntary contribution of $50 or more to the ASCRS Foundation. 3. Complete the ASCRS Clinical Survey (physicians only) either at the Clinical Survey booth #3001 in the front of Hall D or in the Tesla booth. Important things to know Perhaps one of the most important things for participants to know is that they must be present at the Tesla booth in the Exhibit Hall at the time of each drawing in order to win the item at play. As for the Tesla, the winner is also responsible for transporting the car—either driving or shipping it— to his or her final destination. Last year, Thomas Carter, MD, won the Tesla and drove it from San Diego to his home state of Oklahoma. As the winner, you also agree to pay the applicable taxes under U.S. and Louisiana State law. Best of luck to all registered attendees who enter to win.
