Don’t miss this year Powerade Vodacom Ultra Challenge

The 18th till 20th of February marks the weekend that the The Powerade Vodacom Ultra Challenge will take place.  The Powerade Vodacom Ultra Challenge is a unique concept that was started two years ago, currently it is the biggest corporate involved event in the Potchefstroom and KOSH area.

The event was supported in 2003 by 4500 athletes and promises to be even bigger and better in 2005 with the combined efforts between the City Council of Potchefstroom and the City Council of Klerksdorp. The main sponsors Vodacom and ABI, with the brand Powerade, included a couple of add on events to make the weekend even more special with the Sport Expo.

The sport expo will also future the involvement of the surrounding schools with seven-a-side rugby, seven-a-side netball, soccer, volleyball, a drum majorette competition and to end the expo a fireworks show that will blow everyone away.

The event also sees the inclusion of an accolade system where the athletes are motivated to enter as many events as possible. There will be the Pioneer Marathon Run with the 5km, 10km, 21.1km and 42.2km run where you can earn accolades with each event, the Overland Cycle Race where you can earn extra points for the time trail mountain bike race and last but not least the Stringrays Open Water which will take place at the Klerksdorp Dam. For the swimmers there will be a 1 mile for boys and girls as well as a 1 mile for men and woman for those of us that are not so fit there are also a 750m and 375m for all genders and ages.

Anyone who would like more information on this event can go to the official website www.poweradeultrachallenge.co.za,  or phone Japie Olivier on 018 462 5887.

TUSK RIO GAVE  AWAY A SMALL FORTUNE THIS PAST WEEKEND

It really was a weekend for winners at Tusk Rio Casino Resort. The payout frenzy started with a bang early Saturday morning when the R10 Double Nutty Progressive Jackpot was finally won. R600.00 was all it took to topple this monster Jackpot amount of R272,580.00.

The winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, was a little more than satisfied with his win, to say the least!

And this was not all as, just after 5am on Sunday morning the Jackpot Carnival Hyperlink Progressive was won. The modest amount of R88,865.00 was paid out on Machine no. 21207.

With over 1,000 Jackpots won totalling R2 Million Rand this was definitely a weekend for winners.

Tusk Rio also held their 2nd prize “Lekker Lifestyle Draw” on the Sunday afternoon with cash prizes worth R10,000 as well as the main prize of a shopping spree worth R22,000.00 at Tile Africa, being given away. An ecstatic Johan Ollewagen was the winner of this super prize.

When asked what he would use the voucher for he said that his wife has been seriously considering a kitchen makeover and this win had come just at the right time.

Don’t forget that the 1st prize “Lekker Lifestyle Draw” takes place on Sunday the 30th of January when one lucky winner will shop till they drop to the tune of  R90,000.00 at Danlou Marine. What a way to finish a fantastic promotion, so don’t miss out – collect your tickets now.

Tusk Rio congratulates all winners, big and small, and may you continue to “Experience the Difference” during each visit to South Africa’s number one Casino for service excellence.
