EDWARDS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. -- Army and Air Force Exchange Service locations are once again teaming up with Hershey's to give away nearly $20,000 worth of children's playhouses through June 30.

One "Step 2 Neat and Tidy Cottage" Playhouse will be given away to an Edwards Base Exchange shopper as part of the giveaway. Valued at approximately $159, the playhouse includes an interactive phone, working doorbell and pass-through mailbox in addition to a molded-in kitchen table, faucet, burner and two seats.

"This may be some little boy or girl's first 'home,'" said Edwards BX General Manager, Russell Hinrichs. "We look forward to not only awarding the prize but, depending on how generous the winner's allowance is, maybe even showing them how the Exchange can help them furnish it."

The "Hershey's Fisher House Sweepstakes" runs from June 3 to 30 and the in-store drawing for the playhouse will take place at the Edwards AFB Exchange on or about July 1. All authorized shoppers are eligible and no purchase is necessary to enter.
