Submit your Page Entry with the bonus stamp and we will create for you the bonus Page Entries for that month’s drawing.
- Wildcard: Earn a “Wildcard Play” stamp that can substitute for any required “Shop” or “Eat” stamp by attending a community event that will be identified on LiveLocalFallonNV.com or promoted in the media as a “Live Local” event. Attending a “Live Local” event and/or obtaining a “Wildcard Play” stamp is not required to complete a Page Entry.
Tear out a completed Page Entry and drop it by the Fallon Convention Center or put a postage stamp on it and drop it in the mail. Each correctly completed Page Entry submitted by the end of the month is eligible for that month’s drawing. Monthly drawings will be held the following month.
All prizes are listed on LiveLocalFallonNV.com.
In July, the City will host a Grand Prize Drawing/Live Local Fallon Finale for all residents and draw from all correctly completed passport Page Entries for grand prizes.
