Bonus Selfies

Five extra-large candy canes (we’re talking 2-3 feet large!) are hanging in windows of CBJ offices and facilities in the downtown area. Take a selfie with each one you find and submit the photo(s) online. Each one is worth one bonus ticket in the drawing. Find all five candy canes and you have five more chances to win!
