Greetings!

I am honored and excited to be speaking at SteemFest this year!

If you haven't seen my "I am speaking at SteemFest post," then check it out so I don't have to recap the entire thing here!

If you want to see the SteemFest post by @roelandp announcing me as a speaker its here!

So basically I love Steemit and have been a top "cheerleader" for Steemit for over a year now. I could go on and on about all I have done to promote Steemit, increase the value of $teem, and contribute valuable content, but that's mostly all in the post linked above!

The point of THIS post - which I am sure you care more about - is a FREE ticket to SteemFest!

Last year I had a ticket to SteemFest and was scheduled to go but the birth of my first son changed that at the last minute. Instead I sponsored travel expenses for @saramiller and @everlove to go in my stead. They will tell you first hand that SteemFest was truly epic!

I know its not realistic for everyone to go but really this is a WORTHWHILE EVENT!

If your not yet convinced watch this AWESOME video by @roelandp which is informative and very entertaining! We gonna have a BALL, HAV A BALL HAVE A BALL!!!!

I truly believe Steemit has the potential to be revolutionary, and I know there are a lot of really awake and inspired people here on Steemit that just need a little help and inspiration to make it to the most Fantastic Fest on the Planet, SteemFest!

I want to help promote SteemFest, as it is a truly worthy cause and @roelandp and other dedicated Steemians have put in so much time, energy, and finances into making this happen two years in a row!

(The man him self @roelandp !!!)

While @roelandp is the one weaving this all together this is in Steemit fashion a COMMUNITY EVENT! This would not be possible without ALL of us but there are individuals who have donated a generous sum to make Steemit happen for the rest of us!

Lets give a SPECIAL thanks to

Lets remember that despite giveaways like this and cheap ticket prices SteemFest is NOT FREE!

Everyone one of these individuals has donated and contribute more than a generous sum to make SteemFest possible for the rest of us. I for one am very grateful for the ones who have made not just SteemFest possible but STEEMIT POSSIBLE for all of us!

Give thanks to @gtg who got us a 10% discount on flights to Lisbon so consider checking out his post before flights

I also want to recognize the Noble Steemians who have already given away tickets before I.

If you followed any of the SteemFest action last year, you know how awesome it was and I am quite sure this one is going to be even more awesome yet!

So my hope is that not only will I be able to sponsor another valuable Steemian to SteemFest, but that I will also inspire and motivate others to invest in their own success by going to SteemFest!

So let's get into it:

How do YOU win your ticket to SteemFest?

Well as I said, my two main goals are to ONE sponsor a deserving and valuable Steemian to SteemFest and TWO to PROMOTE SteemFest and Steemit as a whole!

So.......

Guidelines!!!!!

I am going to take a page from the Exemplary Steemian @papa-pepper and NOT require a Resteem of this post!
I am NOT going to require an Upvote of this post.
I DO require that you make a comment, or make your own post and link it in this thread.
The post/comment should answer "Why Will SteemFest Be Better Because You Are There?"
One week from this post, I will choose a winner for a FREE (rather, one I will purchase with $teem) to SteemFest!
I will donate a ticket to whoever I feel is going to most benefit Steemit and SteemFest! Remember, this is all about the greater good of Steemit and SteemFest not just an individual.
Please vote on the entry you feel most deserves the donation, as I will take that into consideration.
If anyone entering is found to be lying or dishonorable, they will be eliminated and flagged.
I will give the deserving winner the ticket upon arrival to SteemFest front registry desk.
Let's do this for the success of Steemit!

Ok, so that may seem like a lot it really comes down to who is contributing to the greater good of the Steemit Community!

So make your entries and get ready for the most Fantastic Fest on Earth: STEEMFEST!

Full Steem Ahead to SteemFest2!
