Official Rules

Black Friday Scholarship Giveaway 2026

No purchase necessary. A purchase will not improve your chances of winning. Open to residents of Nova Scotia who are 18 or older.

1. Sponsor

The Black Friday Scholarship Giveaway (the "Contest") is run by Evolve Fitness Ltd., 3667 Strawberry Hill, Halifax, NS (the "Sponsor"). Questions can be sent to matt@evolvefitnessltd.com.

2. Contest period

The Contest starts on November 10, 2026 and closes on Friday, November 27, 2026 at 5:00 pm Atlantic Time. Entries received after the close are not eligible. The Sponsor's computer is the official clock for the Contest.

3. Who can enter

The Contest is open to legal residents of Nova Scotia who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry. Current members and clients of Evolve Fitness may enter. Employees and contractors of the Sponsor, and the people they live with, are not eligible to win.

4. How to enter

Enter by filling out the entry form at evolvefitnessltd.com/giveaway during the Contest period and agreeing to these rules. Each person may submit one entry. If a person submits more than one entry, only the first is counted. Entries must be made by the person entering, using their own name, email address and phone number.

5. Bonus entries for referrals

After entering, each entrant receives a personal referral link. An entrant earns one bonus entry for each eligible friend who enters the Contest during the Contest period, either by using that link or by naming the entrant as the person who referred them on the entry form. Bonus entries are earned only for unique, eligible people who have not already entered. Entries a person refers to themselves, duplicate entries, and entries using false or made-up details do not earn bonus entries. There is no limit on bonus entries. The Sponsor's records are final in deciding who referred whom.

6. Prizes

The following prizes are available:

  • One (1) Grand Prize, approximate retail value $7,500 CAD: a 12-month Boot Camp or Fitness Forever membership at the winner's choice of Evolve Fitness location (where that program is offered), 12 months of goals coaching with Matt Benvie, one Health & Fitness Assessment at Evolve Integrated Health, and three (3) massage treatments at Evolve Integrated Health.
  • Four (4) Second Prizes, one for each of Evolve's Halifax, Bedford, Dartmouth and Truro locations, approximate retail value up to $600 CAD each: a 3-month Boot Camp or Fitness Forever membership at that location, plus a written personal game plan from Matt Benvie. Each Second Prize is drawn from the eligible entries that chose that location.
  • One (1) Referral Prize, approximate retail value up to $600 CAD: a 3-month Boot Camp or Fitness Forever membership, awarded to the entrant who referred the Grand Prize winner, if the Grand Prize winner was referred by an eligible entrant.

Downtown Halifax location: the Downtown location offers semi-private training rather than Boot Camp or Fitness Forever. A winner who chooses the Downtown location receives a credit toward semi-private training at that location instead of the membership portion of the prize: $2,400 CAD for the Grand Prize, or $600 CAD for a Second Prize or the Referral Prize.

Total approximate value of all prizes: up to $10,500 CAD.

7. Prize conditions

  • Prizes must be accepted as awarded. They have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for cash, and cannot be transferred to another person.
  • Memberships and credits must be started by January 31, 2027, and services must be used during the prize term. Unused sessions or credit do not carry over and are not refunded.
  • Membership prizes do not include semi-private training, personal training or other programs except as stated above.
  • Before starting, each winner must complete Evolve's standard membership forms, including the health screening questionnaire and waiver. Winners take part in classes and clinic services at their own risk and should talk to their doctor first if they have any health concerns.
  • If a winner is already a member, the membership portion of their prize is applied to their existing membership instead.
  • The Sponsor may substitute a prize, or part of a prize, of equal or greater value if it cannot be provided as described.

8. The draw and odds

Winners will be selected by random draw from all eligible entries, including bonus entries, on Friday, November 27, 2026 at 7:00 pm Atlantic Time at 3667 Strawberry Hill, Halifax, NS. The draw will be streamed live on Evolve Fitness's Instagram and Facebook. The Grand Prize is drawn first. A person can win only one prize. The odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received, including bonus entries.

9. Claiming a prize

Selected entrants will be contacted by phone, text and/or email within 24 hours of the draw. To be confirmed as a winner, a selected entrant must:

  • respond within 72 hours of the first contact attempt;
  • correctly answer, without assistance, a time-limited mathematical skill-testing question; and
  • sign a declaration confirming they meet these rules, accept the prize, and release the Sponsor as described below.

If a selected entrant cannot be reached, does not respond in time, answers the skill-testing question incorrectly, or does not meet these rules, they will not receive the prize, and the Sponsor may draw another eligible entry for that prize.

10. Personal information

The information you provide is collected by Evolve Fitness Ltd. to run the Contest, contact winners, and, where you have given permission on the entry form, to send you updates and offers from Evolve Fitness by email and/or text message. Agreeing to receive marketing messages is optional and is not required to enter or win. You can unsubscribe from emails at any time using the link in any email, and from text messages by replying STOP. Your information will not be sold. Evolve may share it with service providers it uses to run the Contest and send messages, only for those purposes.

Separate from the Contest, entrants who agreed to receive messages may receive special offers from Evolve Fitness. These offers are not prizes, and accepting one has no effect on the Contest.

11. Publicity

By accepting a prize, each winner agrees that the Sponsor may announce their first name, last initial and Evolve location, and use their photo or a short testimonial, in connection with the Contest, without further payment. A winner may ask not to have their photo or testimonial used.

12. Release

By entering, entrants release Evolve Fitness Ltd., Evolve Integrated Health, and their owners, employees and contractors from any claims, losses or damages arising from taking part in the Contest or from accepting or using a prize, except where the law does not allow such a release.
