CONTEST: Feeling like snapping some photos?
The Pennsylvania Great Outdoors Visitors Bureau announced its lineup of photo contests for 2024. The four quarterly themes are Let it Snow, Big Fish, Good Old Summertime and Stargazing.
The Let it Snow photo contest runs from January through March. There’s a little bit of snow in the forecast for the coming week. And February and March usually bring low temperatures and some flurries. So we’re betting there will be a chance to get some good shots.
The annual Big Fish Photo Contest is from April through June, the Good Old Summertime Photo Contest will be from July through September, and Stargazing will run from October through December.
Finalists’ photos for each contest period will be posted online with the four entries receiving the most votes winning the following cash prizes: First place $100, second place $75, third place $50, and fourth place $25 for Let it Snow, Good Old Summertime and Stargazing contest. The Big Fish Photo Contest has monthly winners of prize packs from the bureau’s members and two grand prize winners.
To enter, complete the entry form and upload your photos at VisitPAGO.com/contest. The only requirements are that the photo meet the photo contest theme and must be taken in Cameron, Elk or Forest counties.
“Our photo contests are very popular with travelers and locals alike. These contests give people the chance to show off their photos highlighting the natural beauty, people, places and events of the region during each season,” said John Straitiff, executive director of the Pennsylvania Great Outdoors Visitors Bureau.
We’re betting the entries will be memorable.
