#WAKALove Vine Contest
Hello WAKA Nation! With Valentine’s day quickly approaching, we thought it would be fun to kick off the month with a contest. The winner of the contest will win a free registration for the sport you LOVE the most! (This goes without saying but it’s obviously a free registration for either WAKA kickball or WAKA dodgeball.)
The contest rules are simple. Create a 6-second animation using Vine on your iPhone showing us “WAKA Love” and share it on Twitter, the app that lets you take six seconds of stop motion animation. Be sure to use the hashtag #WAKALove so we can find you and enter you into the contest.
