The Flamengo Citizen Christmas promotion already has its winners.
In total, 20 fans each took home a brick from the "Flamengo Forever" campaign.
By From the official website team - in
The official Flamengo website and the "Cidadão Rubro-Negro" (Flamengo Citizen) program held their biggest promotion of 2010 in recent months. Aiming to further strengthen the relationship with the fans, the club's greatest asset, they offered 20 bricks as part of the "Rubro-negro para sempre" (Flamengo Forever) program to celebrate Christmas. This program aims to raise funds for the construction of the professional module at Flamengo's training center.
And to win, fans had to answer the following question: "What does it mean to have your name engraved in Flamengo's history?". There were many participants, but the Official Website and CRN team chose the 20 lucky ones. Some of them were contacted by phone and had a similar reaction: surprise.
"I'm speechless with this news. I believe that of all the times the fans have had expectations regarding the training center, this is the one where we place the most hope. I think this project is the closest to what the fans wanted. And participating in this, whether by supporting, participating in the promotion, like me, or buying a brick, is very important. It's great for the fans to know that they will forever be part of the club's history. It's a milestone. And only a club like Flamengo, which has such a huge fan base, could do this," said Wellington Araujo, a Flamengo supporter in the bronze category, from the city of Ceilândia, in the Federal District.
Still in the central-west region, but in Goiânia (GO), another winner was also speechless upon receiving the news that he had won the prize.
"This is the second time I've won a prize in a promotion from the website and the 'Cidadão Rubro-Negro' (Flamengo Citizen) program. I already won in the autograph collection contest. I'm from out of town, and it's a passion I've carried since I was little. Whenever Flamengo is playing, I'm in the middle of it. And I couldn't miss this 'brick' promotion. Before even knowing if I would win, I made sure to buy mine. People who live in Rio de Janeiro aren't always as dedicated as we fans from elsewhere. Today I'm in Goiânia, but I lived in Curitiba last year, and it was impressive there too," said Alexandre Hissao, a silver-level Flamengo citizen.
Among the winners from Rio de Janeiro, the joy was the same. Rogério Moreira, a gold Flamengo citizen, praised the "Flamengo Forever" project extensively.
"The promotion of the little brick was sensational. And the project is too. Having a training center is fundamental. Even more so for a club with the stature of Flamengo. Other clubs, which already have this structure, have already proven how profitable it is to have an excellent training center. We are on the right track. I am very happy to have won my little brick and to have participated in some way in all of this," said Rogério.
