A contest is a game of skill, while a sweepstakes is a game of chance. Games of skill require the entrant to do something (write an essay, draw a pictures, display your spirit, go on a treasure hunt, etc.). A sweepstakes is a game of chance and does not require any real effort on the part of the entrant. Both award prizes.
