The first contest was The Gerbil Race!  Viewers were asked to send in a post card with their name, address and phone number.  Several times each morning and after noon, Captain 20 would select a post card and call that child.  The viewer would be asked to pick  one of three gerbils, each bearing the name of a Channel 20 program.  The gerbils were released and if the selected gerbil won, so did the viewer!
