(PR NEWSWIRE) Radio Promo Invites Listeners to Win a Year's Supply Of Aqua Vi Radio Promo Invites Listeners to Win a Year's Supply Of Aqua Vie in a New York Minute KETCHUM, Idaho, Jan. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Thomas Gillespie, president and chief executive officer of Aqua Vie Beverage Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: AVBC), announced today that the company's new all natural non-carbonated lightly flavored water will make its New York debut during the week of January 31. Aqua Vie is available in seven all-natural flavor combinations including Avalanche(TM), Bamboo(TM), Harvest(TM), Java(TM), McIntosh(TM), Paradise(TM) and Sun Tea(TM), in half-liter PET bottles that feature clear, artful shrink- to-fit labels. The company's product is sure to garner attention, if not in the colorful trucks in which it will be delivered, then certainly on grocery and deli shelves throughout the greater metropolitan New York area. Just for fun and to get New Yorkers, known the world over for being picky about their water, looking for the product on shelves, a 60-second commercial radio spot invites area listeners to win a year's supply of product by engaging in "no-purchase-necessary" Aqua Vie sightings. "Lots of people have been following Aqua Vie's progress with pushpins, and it's a tremendous thrill for us to finally deliver McIntosh and all our other flavors to the Big Apple," said Gillespie. "We wanted people to share in the excitement of Aqua Vie's arrival in New York by participating in something that's fun and yet lets them know how serious we are about communicating directly with consumers. The Aqua Vie sightings -- though actually that's more a term popularized by some of our shareholders -- seemed perfect for what we want to accomplish," Gillespie said. From now through February 14, 2000 Aqua Vie Beverage Corporation will award a one-year Hydration Subscription (that's 1,152 bottles of product delivered over a year-long period) to three radio listeners from among those who report Aqua Vie sightings, indicating name, address, telephone number, the location of the sighting, and the lot number taken from the Aqua Vie bottle. Enter to win by telephoning Aqua Vie's corporate headquarters at 888-744-7500, or enter via e-mail at the company's web site www.aquavie.com.
