Sweepstakes entries must be submitted as follows (the “Submission Procedure”):

 

Each individual meeting the eligibility requirements who likes the sweepstakes post on Instagram, follows @gobrightline, @pganational on Instagram, and signs the Brightline Rail Safety Pledge at www.gobrightline.com/offers/sweepstakes/pga-national, within the Submission Period will be automatically entered into the sweepstakes. One comment = one entry per Instagram account.

 

The period to submit sweepstakes entries begins on March 24, 2025, at 9:00 am EST and ends on March 31, 2025, at 11:59 pm EST (the “Submission Period”).

 

The winners of the sweepstakes will be announced on or about March 31, 2025. Announcement of the winners will be made via email directly to the applicable winner’s email address supplied with its submission via the Rail Safety Pledge. Each entrant is responsible for monitoring his/her email account for prize notification. A winner must respond within seventy-two (72) hours following receipt of prize notification (the “Prize Claim Period”) in order to claim his/her prize(s). If a prize winner does not respond during the Prize Claim Period or if the email announcing the prize to the winner is returned as undeliverable, such winner shall be deemed to have forfeited the prize(s). In order to collect (a) prize(s), a winner must already have or create a Brightline Trains account. The email address associated with the account must be provided to Sponsor within forty-eight (48) hours following the end of the Prize Claim Period (the “Prize Deposit Period”) in order for Brightline Trains to deposit a prize into the winner’s account. A winner’s failure to create a Brightline Trains account and to provide to Sponsor the valid email address associated with such account within the Prize Deposit Period shall be deemed such winner’s forfeit of the prize(s) and an alternate winner will be selected.

 

The winner(s) of the sweepstakes will be selected from among all eligible entries via a random drawing to be conducted on or about March 31, 2025.
