Win a $50,000 Family (and Friends) Reunion Trip

Where was your last family reunion held? A local park? A distant relative’s backyard?

Banana Boat is upping the ante on family reunions by hosting a contest to invite one lucky winner (and 49 of their family members and friends) on a trip to a “resort destination.” While they haven’t announced specifically where this destination will be, it’s a pretty good guess that a sunscreen company might bring you to somewhere warm and sunny. This prize package is worth a whopping $50,000.

To enter, you must be a legal resident of the lower 48 states or D.C. and be at least 18 years of age (19 in Alabama and Nebraska). You’ll have to figure out which 49 people you’d like to invite up front, though, because you’ll have to invite them to join your “family group” to enter. Children are allowed to be included in your family group, but they are required to be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian if your group is selected.

Banana Boat will choose a winner randomly on July 6. The prize package (worth $50,000) includes roundtrip airfare for all 50 people, three days and two nights at a hotel (though you’ll have to cozy up with four to a room) and a $15,000 check to help offset tax liability.

Entries are due by July 5 at 11:59 pm ET. For more details and to enter, head to Banana Boat’s “The Great Big Family Reunion” website.
