BLACK DAWG SEALCOAT , New England's premier driveway maintenance company, launches its "America's Ugliest Driveway" Contest.
GOFFSTOWN, NH, April 15, 2009 /Franchise PR News/ -- For every cracked, beat-up, worn-out driveway, there's a story. Perhaps it's a tale of neglect, winter storms, glacial movement, a meteor crash or an unfortunate incident involving a monster tractor pull looking for a place to turn around. With its "America's Ugliest Driveway" Contest, BLACK DAWG SEALCOAT's Founder, Jack Child, is in search of America's Ugliest Driveway and is willing to put $500 in the pocket of its owner to ease the sting of their misfortune.
Starting April 15 (a date chosen for its own "eyesoreness"), homeowners from all 50 states may submit their photo or video along with a caption or story making their case to win the prize. Besides just plain being ugly, points will be given for creativity and cleverness in the form of captions (e.g. here's my driveway after aliens landed on it) and brief stories (e.g. cracks that resemble celebrities or world leaders). Funny videos will receive extra consideration. The winner, to be selected on June 15, 2009, will receive $500, courtesy of BLACK DAWG FRANCHISE GROUP, parent company of BLACK DAWG SEALCOAT .
One driveway from each state will be chosen as that state's Ugliest Driveway and the owner will be sent a jug of real New Hampshire Maple syrup, courtesy of Parker's Maple Barn, Mason, New Hampshire. From that not so elite group of uglies, one Grand Prize winner will be selected and hailed as owner of "America's Ugliest Driveway" and collect $500.
Homeowners wishing to submit their "ugly driveway" entry should visit www.AmericasUgliestDriveway.com. Entries are limited to one per household. By submitting their entry, contest participants agree to allow BLACK DAWG FRANCHISE GROUP LLC to use their names, likenesses and any items submitted for marketing purposes and publication on the web. Void where prohibited by law.
Serving both residential and commercial markets, BLACK DAWG SEALCOAT Franchises use only the finest materials to preserve, protect and restore asphalt to its original, black-as-night finish. Besides a better look, the sealant employed by BLACK DAWG slows oxidation and other damaging effects of the sun and ultraviolet rays while creating a protective barrier against gas, oil, chemicals and, your driveway's worst enemy, water. Unfortunately for contest lovers, using BLACK DAWG to maintain their driveway will inevitably keep it looking great and drastically lower their odds of winning.
Renowned for its professional and courteous customer service (real people actually answer the phone), BLACK DAWG SEALCOAT also offers Hot Rubber crack sealing services as well as line striping marking services for commercial parking lots. BLACK DAWG's service area includes central and southern New Hampshire, the seacoast of New Hampshire, north central Massachusetts, Fairfield County, Connecticut and is looking to award franchises and expand into New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Massachusetts, Maine and other locations.
BLACK DAWG SEALCOAT is a member of the Souhegan Valley, Manchester, Salem and Exeter Chambers of Commerce and each franchise is an accredited member of the Better Business Bureau. In addition, BLACK DAWG supports local and national non-profit organizations such as the PLUS Company, the Souhegan Valley Boys and Girls Club, Fisher House for Disabled Vets, the Red Cross, Bedford Little League, Londonderry Youth Soccer, Londonderry Fire Department, Windham Baseball/Softball League, New Hampshire Fire Marshall's Arson Investigation Canine Division, Nashua Humane Society, Boys and Girls Club of Nashua, the New Outlook Teen Center of Exeter, Girls, Inc. of Nashua, the Veterans Count Auction, The Cancer Society of Connecticut and the Weston, Connecticut Historical Society.
