Calgary-based bus line Greyhound Canada Transportation Corp. will awarded free travel to one college or university student in a new promotion called "Win a Year on Greyhound." The winner will receive free transportation on Greyhound between their hometown and post secondary institution from Nov. 1, 2002 to Nov. 1, 2003. The winner will also be able to ship personal goods twice during that time period. Students can enter online at <http://www.greyhound.ca> or by mail. The promotion is an extension of Greyhound's student offerings such as the "Travel is Education, Too!" scholarship program, according to Dave Leach, vice-president of passenger services at Greyhound Canada. The promotion is being supported with media relations handled in-house. Press releases promoting the initiative have been sent to university and college publications and major media in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario.
