Additional FAQs of Partners:
- No physical coupons will be provided to the Pigskin's Pals during the Summer 2022 promotional period. All promotional coupons will be distributed digitally and will be presented to your Frontline Staff via Smartphones or printed by the families participating. Visit Canton cannot guarantee that families will only use once throughout the Summer or share it digitally with family & friends. Please create your offer accordingly to this.
- If your attraction chooses a promotion of a weekly offer, this will be distributed on Monday the week of the promotion to the Pigskin's Pals E-blast list, Pigskin's Pals Facebook Group, and on Visit Canton social media pages.
- We encourage you to choose an offer that you would boost your attendence, are prepared with Staff and Volunteers to welcome an influx of visitors, your programming is family-friendly and also can provide a website link that shares your most current protocols for visitation.
- Only Pigskin's Pals (children ages 2-12) are allowed to take advantage of the offer designated by the attraction. All attractions offers will be different, as some may be a discount for a visit, admission to special event, meals at restaurants and will only be accepted for Pigskin's Pals (children ages 2-12). All additional family members and guests over the age of 12 would pay normal admission to participate in the activity.
- All participating partners have the ability to restrict when and how their promotion can be redeemed, identify blackout dates, and have the final discretion to honor their Pigskin's Pals promotion. Details of any restrictions must be communicated with Visit Canton in advance of promotion.
- Get creative! The target audience is local families that have children ages 2-12, so consider how you can encourage them to visit your destination Summer of 2022.
