Olympus US Open Sweepstakes

Olympus Imaging America has announced its national sweepstakes, which will send five winners and their doubles partner on a weekend getaway (August 31- September 2, 2007) in New York City to experience the fast action and excitement of the US Open 2007 Tennis Tournament. Olympus sweepstakes champions will receive hotel, airfare, spending cash and two admission tickets to the world-class tennis tournament, including exclusive access to designated professional photography locations at the event, enabling them to capture the on-court and behind-the-scenes drama.

Starting in the Olympus suite located at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, winners will be coached by an award-winning photographer, who is an Olympus Visionary, on best techniques for shooting nonstop tennis action. Winners will gain access to the photographers' lounge and other elite locations, where capturing great pictures will be a snap. The winners' ultimate experience will be in the photo pit, shooting elbow-to-elbow with professional photographers and capturing amazing up-close images.

"Olympus has been the official camera of the US Open since 2003," said Mark Huggins, executive director, Brand Marketing, Olympus Imaging America Inc. "Our cameras and this tournament are a perfect match, and we're thrilled to have our consumers be a part of this unique experience."
