Win Chance for Swarovski Riflescope at Moose On the Loose 5K

Minneapolis, MINN. (January 17, 2018) – Attendees of the Shooting, Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show (SHOT Show) will have the chance to use their sneakers for more than just traversing the show floor by running in the 3rd Annual Moose on the Loose 5K hosted by Julie McQueen on Monday, January 22 at 4 p.m.  The event is pegged as a fun run and doesn’t cost a dime to enter, but attendees will be encouraged to make a donation to one of two charities as their “entrance fee”: Stewards of Wildlife or Raise ‘Em Outdoors.

Every attendee who runs or walks will earn a raffle ticket for the chance at a Swarovski Optik Z3 Riflescope, valued at $1,000. Additionally, Orion Coolers is giving away an Orion 25 cooler via raffle – and Slumberjack is giving a backpack to the male and female finisher.

New this year is a shuttle bus from the strip to the race location in Sunset Park. The bus will leave from the ‘underground bus’ pickup area at Bellagio at 3 p.m. and on its way to Sunset Park, will stop at the famous Las Vegas sign for photos before the race.

For participants who can’t make the shuttle, simply arrive to the Cottonwood Shelter at Sunset Park before 4 p.m.  For directions to the shelter, visit http://mooseontheloose5k.com

Started in 2016, the first Moose on the Loose 5K was started with Julie McQueen and Cam Hanes as hosts and word spread via social media. That event had 80 runners participating with several organizations involved to hand out water and other giveaways.

The 2018 event currently has organizations WSI Sports creating t-shirts for the first 50 participants, Swarovski Optik donating a Z3 Riflescope for raffle, Slumberjack giving a pack away to the fastest male and fastest female finishers; Girls with Guns Clothing will provide an outfit from their athletic line to the fastest female finisher; Orion Coolers is giving away an Orion 25 cooler at the event; Mule Deer Foundationis bringing beverages, Nuttzo has samples and coupons for all racers; and thanks to National Deer Alliance for helping offset expenses for hosting this race!
