If you haven’t joined our 3-Day Social Stars yet, we are here to make your decision a lot easier! The Social Stars are our social community’s family who share, chat with us, and qualify to earn amazing prizes to boot! Whether you’re new to the online scene, or are a social media maven, it’s easy to become a Social Star and make the most of all the 3-Day platforms.

Just how can you earn points and start working your way to prizes? It’s simple!

Register for the 3-Day

This one is a no brainer, and just visiting The3Day.org gets you 10 points per day. If you then also visit the Registration page, you can earn another 10 points per day, and get started on your 2017 3-Day journey! If you haven’t signed up yet, now is the time! We are less than two months away from our first 3-Day of this year, so it’s the perfect time to get your training and fundraising going. Check out our 3-Day blog for helpful tips and inspiring stories too, because you can earn 10 points for each daily visit.

Link all your social platforms

Whenever you sign up, you will have to link either your Twitter or Facebook, so it’s easier for you to chat and share with us throughout your 3-Day journey. However, for every extra social media account you link, including Instagram, you can earn 50 points.

Share with your followers (and with us!)

Once you’re connected, we hope you will share your 3-Day love! By using the hashtags #3DaySocialStars #SocialStars and #Sponsored we will be able to track and re-share all your tweets, posts, photos and more. We love seeing your training routes, fundraising goals and more! Each time you share, you can earn a variety of different point amounts.

Set up automatic posting

If you don’t do a ton of posting on your own, we still have you covered! We will be creating weekly posts about fun topics like our 20-Mile walk, registration promotions and more. You can receive these posts via emails, and share them with the click of a button. Or, when you sign up, set your account to automatically share these posts onto your Twitter feed. No fuss, no muss, all the points.

Enter our Picture Challenge

One of our favorite parts of the social media world is getting to see all your pretty faces! If you use the hashtags we listed above in your Instagram posts, we have a special monthly prize for our top photo.

Follow us to see if you’ve won!

Make sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, where we will be announcing the winners (with their permission) each month. The point tally starts anew after each winner is chosen, so you have plenty of opportunities to get your 3-Day swag on.

If you haven’t joined the 3-Day Social Stars yet, there’s still time! We will be picking new winners each month, so sign up now and start earning points!

As the 3-Day season approaches, we are excited to announce the launch of a new program: the 3-Day Social Stars!

Any of our 3-Dayers can join this group, as long as you have a public Facebook or Twitter account. We would love to see as many Social Stars as possible. Social Stars are social media influencers (like you!) who can earn great prizes by spreading the word about the 3-Day.

Sound fun? It is! It’s also very easy!

Start by going to our 3-Day Social Stars website and signing in. It’s a quick process that will get you going on your journey towards earning points and prizes! You will log in either with your Facebook or Twitter account, and receive an email welcoming you to the Social Stars.

Congrats! You just earned your first points as a Social Star! From there, you can dig deeper into our site and learn more ways to earn points. Recruiting friends to be a Social Star, visiting the 3-Day Blog or mentioning #SocialStars on Instagram are just a few of the ways you can earn points as a Social Star. In a nutshell, you can earn points for doing things many 3-Dayers have already been doing anyway!

What can you do with all these points? The more points you earn, the more entries you have in our monthly drawings! We will pull random winners from the top point-earners and top recruiters every month. Prizes include fun 3-Day swag and merchandise you can rock on the 3-Day or use all year long!

You can also earn points and prizes by posting photos on Instagram with the hashtags #SocialStars and #sponsored. Show us your training walks, fundraising events, or favorite throwback photos from 3-Days past. You could see your photos featured on our 3-Day Social Stars Pic Wall, and we will be picking the top photo every month to win another special prize.

There are so many easy ways to enter to win! You can also use the site to follow along with the 3-Day social media feeds, make your way to the3-Day website for event dates and registration, or even visit the blog. Consider it your one-stop portal to all things 3-Day!
