The Army & Air Force Exchange Service and Dr. Pepper have teamed up to offer a boot-scootin', star-studded weekend getaway for one lucky shopper or a chance to win one of ten acoustic guitars.

The Dr. Pepper Academy of Country Music (ACM) sweepstakes features a grand prize of a trip for two to Las Vegas from Apr. 17-19 for the 45th Annual ACM Awards, three nights at a deluxe hotel, tickets to events throughout the weekend as well as meals and transportation. Ten first prize winners will also receive a custom acoustic vintage guitar valued at approximately $200.

"This is a dream trip, whether you're a country music fan or not," said AAFES' Senior Enlisted Advisor Chief Jeffry Helm. "With an approximate retail value of $6,000, the grand prize offers everything from the sights and sounds of Vegas to the pomp and circumstance of a major music awards show."

From Jan. 8-21, BXs and PXs around the world are accepting entries for AAFES' Dr Pepper ACM Awards Sweepstakes, with the drawing occurring on or about March 10, 2010. No purchase is necessary to enter and entrants need not be present to win.
