My Brock Summer Instagram Contest

Share your summer experience for a chance to win an iPad Mini 4!

Students from more than 100 countries call Brock their home away from home. They come from all corners of the world and represent unique cultures and ways of life.

To celebrate this diversity, we’re asking ALL Brock University students to share their summer experience by posting a photo on Instagram using the hashtag #MyBrockSummer2018. Photos can be as simple as everyday life, visiting friends, and family, a summer vacation, a trip to your former high school, or an experience abroad. Creativity is encouraged, but photos must feature a Brock University branded item (shirt, sweater, hat, memorabilia, logo etc.)

The top five (5) photos will be selected by a panel of judges, and then put to a popular vote with the total number of likes received determining the top three (3) photos, and ultimately the winner of the contest.

Prizes, awarded to the top three photos, are outlined below:

  • First prize:  iPad Mini 4 (M.S.R.P. $529)
  • Second prize: Assortment of Brock University swag (M.S.R.P $100)
  • Third prize: $20 gift card to the campus store

The contest entry deadline is 12 p.m. (noon) on August 20, 2018.
