    LONGWOOD, FL, July 09, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- This summer guests are encouraged to shoot a video or photo of their best whitewater adventures at the US. National Whitewater Center. Videos and photos can be uploaded on the website: http://www.usnwc.org/party, for the chance to win an Endless Summer Party.

Submission categories include biking, climbing, kayaking, zip lines and, of course, whitewater rafting. For the everyday adventurer, we have categories for music and events, pets, and a special one for funny outtakes and carnage. Guests can upload as many videos and photos as they like to increase their chances of winning.

The Endless Summer Party Video contest was launched June 27th with the help of New Way Media, an interactive web and video production agency in Charlotte, N.C. As part of the launch, New Way Media hosted an informational booth at the Whitewater Center during Olympic Day. Guests that day also had the opportunity to be filmed and entered into the contest to win.

From June 27th to August 13th, guests can continue to upload videos and photos of their favorite Whitewater experiences at http://www.usnwc.org/party. Each submission will be considered for weekly prizes and fans can vote for their favorite videos for consideration in the final, grand prize round. Voting will end on August 13th. Five finalists will be entered in the final round of competition for a chance at the Endless Summer Party grand prize. The winner will be announced on August 21st.

The grand prize winner and 10 friends will enjoy a free day at the Whitewater Center with AllSport passes and a private party on the terrace.

"We have watched people film and shoot their different adventures. This contest gives them a chance to expand the excitement and keep our guests involved all summer long,'' said Melissa Scheneman, Advertising and Promotions Manager at the Whitewater Center. "We want our guests to share their adventures in the most creative, fun way possible."

New Way Media developed the contest using Endavo's Internet TV Platform as a way for guests to share their experience with family and friends. The video and photo contest is a first for the Whitewater Center.


Endavo Media's Internet TV Platform provides powerful ways to deliver online programming by including contests, live streaming, social media features, such as sharing of content, commenting, chatting, and much more, to connect with and grow the audience, and multiple ways to monetize online video to generate new revenue.
