Let's see if I understand this. You want the contents of folder A, but
not Folder A itself, duplicated to Folder B, and duplicated to Folder C?

This will do it for you.

set folderA to choose folder with prompt "Choose the source folder."
set folderB to choose folder with prompt "Choose the first destination
folder."
set folderC to choose folder with prompt "Choose the second destination
folder."
tell application "Finder"
duplicate entire contents of folderA to folderB
duplicate entire contents of folderA to folderC
end tell
