Bounty Hosts Quicker Picker Upper Games in Chicago to Celebrate Kick-off of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games

Chicago Residents Encouraged to Visit Pioneer Court for a Night of
Games & Giveaways

CINCINNATI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–On the day of the Opening Ceremony, Bounty – the Quicker Picker Upper
and sponsor of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games – will host Quicker Picker
Upper Games at Pioneer Court Plaza in downtown Chicago. The event will
be open to the public.


Chicago residents will have the opportunity to virtually race against
Bounty partner, Olympic sprinter and four-time gold medalist Allyson
Felix via green screen and test their clean-up speed in a variety of
fun, interactive games and relay races. Winners of these races will
receive prizes and become official members of Team Quicker Picker Upper.
Event attendees will also get to show off their spirit for the Olympic
Games at a sign and t-shirt-making station.

“The Rio 2016 Olympic Games is one of the most anticipated events of the
year, and we invite all of Chicago’s residents to come out, celebrate
its kick-off and join team Quicker Picker Upper,” said Jacques Hagopian,
Brand Director, Bounty. “It’s a great night for families to get together
and show support for Team USA athletes, especially Allyson.”

Bounty kicked off its Rio 2016 Olympic Games sponsorship by teaming up
with Felix. Together, they encouraged Americans everywhere to tweet
their tips for cleaning up spills and messes with Bounty in record time
using #quicktip and #promotion. Bounty pledged to donate $1 for every
tweet to the Community Olympic Development Program (CODP), a U.S.
Olympic Committee program committed to helping American youth receive
the best sports development services possible. At the Chicago event,
Bounty will present a $10,000 check to a representative from the USOC’s
CODP program.
