The challenge will run through Sunday, Feb. 28, and the winner will be announced on Monday, March 8. Participants must complete one activity per category within the #TrueABQ Challenge checklist – with topics ranging from outdoors to food to shopping – upload at least one photo completing an item on the checklist to https://upload.crowdriff.com/trueabq-challenge, and complete the entry form on VisitABQ.org. They may also optionally share photos on social media using the hashtag #TrueABQChallenge.
“We’re excited to begin 2021 with a fun and locally focused initiative,” said Tania Armenta, President & CEO of Visit Albuquerque. “This challenge is a great way for locals to rediscover their love of Albuquerque while also supporting the one-of-a-kind businesses that make our city so unique,” said Armenta. “We can’t wait to see the photos of our residents getting out and enjoying Albuquerque and showing love to our small businesses.”
