50,000 SmartPoints is a LOT of SmartPoints -- enough to get much, if not all, of next year's curriculum for your home school.

5,000 SmartPoints is enough to buy almost any curriculum offered by the Co-op.

1,000 SmartPoints is enough to buy some curriculums at the Co-op, and a nice beginning towards a more expensive curriculum.

These are the awards you can get simply by writing one or more reviews of your favorite field trip in our Field Trips Finder database.

Why Are We Doing This?

As you probably know, the Co-op publishes the most extensive and useful database of educational field trip destinations in the United States and Canada.  Every day, homeschoolers find educational field trip destinations in their area simply by typing in their Zip/Postal codes into our Field Trip Finder and pressing "GO"!

Now, to make our Field Trips Finder even more useful, we are asking members to write reviews of their favorite field trip destinations.  Once we have a bunch of reviews, we'll publish them right on the field trip pages to aid other homeschoolers who are seeking fun, educational field trips in their area.

So, by writing a review, you not only get SmartPoints and a chance to win BIG, you also help other homeschoolers in your area find the best field trip destinations!

How Does It Work?

It's easy! All you have to do is write a review (see instructions below). You'll not only get 100 SmartPoints for every review you write, up to a maximum of 1,000 SmartPoints, but you'll get a chance to win 50,000 or 5,000 SmartPoints.

In fact, the more reviews you write, the greater your chance to win, because when it comes time to pick our winners, we'll put all the reviews in one big digital "hat", shake it up, and draw 11 winners.  The first winner will get 50,000 SmartPoints, and the others will get 5,000 SmartPoints.  So, the more reviews you write, the greater your chance to win.

What's more, you are welcome to write more than 10 reviews, provided they qualify as favorite field trips (4 or 5 stars).  You won't get SmartPoints for writing more than 10 reviews, but your reviews will go into our digital "hat" and thereby increase your chances of winning! 

What Are The Rules?

The rules are very simple, really:

• You must be a Co-op member.
  
• You must write a meaningful and specific review.  It doesn't have to be long, but it must be useful to other homeschoolers who might consider making a trip to that destination.  In particular, it should make reference to specific features or qualities of the destination that make it a great field trip.  A review that could just as easily apply to any field trip in our database won't qualify.
  
• The Co-op reserves the right to reject a review if, in our opinion, it isn't meaningful and specific (see the previous point).
