At the start of each week, the Timber Creek Talon encourages you to #WatchTheWalls with a new flyer showcasing some of the stories and information you can find on the Talon. But this week, we’re just giving you stuff.

Over a dozen variations of the sheet have been placed around the school (16, to be precise), each offering a unique QR code that will let you enter your Student ID and get a chance to win prizes.
We have gift cards to Chick-fil-A, Starbucks, and Amazon to give to the folks that find the codes and enter their IDs. The grand prize winner that scans the most codes will get $50 to spend at Amazon.com. It’s pretty groovy.
It’s going to be a little tricky, because each Talon reporter is posting their unique sheet in a special place in one of the TCHS hallways. We’ve planned it so there should be about two sheets down each of the halls, but where exactly they’ll be posted remains a mystery.
The contest runs from 6th Period May 26 through 6th Period May 28. Winners will be announced (and can claim their prizes) on May 28.
Below are the full rules, just so we’re clear.
- This contest is open to Timber Creek students and staff that have a KISD-issued Student or Employee ID code. Only ID codes associated with Timber Creek will be considered winners. (Sorry, Chargers.)
- Winners will be selected after QR codes are removed from the hallways during 6th Period on May 28. The associated pages that contain the entry forms on TimberCreekTalon.com will also be removed from the website during this process.
- Student ID codes gathered by this contest will be removed from the system by June 3, 2015. These codes will only be used to identify students that have participated in or won the contest.
- Participants can enter up to 16 times, using each unique code. Duplicate entries will be removed during the selection process. IDs for each code entry will be collected in a database, then a winner will be selected using a random number generator. Winners will be announced on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and the TimberCreekTalon.com.
- Prizes include; One Amazon.com gift card worth $50, Five Starbucks gift cards worth $10 each, and 30 Chick-fil-A gift cards for a chicken sandwich. Chick-fil-A gift cards expire May 30, 2015.
- Grand Prize of $50 Amazon gift card will be given to the participant who enters in the most codes. In the event of a tie, the random number generation system will be used.
- Second Prize of one of five $10 Starbucks cards will be given to participants with the other highest codes scanned. In the event of a tie, the random number generation system will be used.
- Standard Prize of one of 30 Chick-fil-A gift cards will be given using the random number generation system.
- You’re really still reading these rules? Thanks!
- Prizes will be available for pickup in room M 104 on May 28 and 29. Grand Prize and Second Prize winners have until June 3 to pick up their prizes.
