Town of Boone launches annual calendar photo contest

The town of Boone is asking residents to send their best photos of the Boone area to Town Hall by Oct. 17 for a chance to see them published in the Town of Boone 2009 Calendar.


The town of Boone’s calendar features photos from area residents.

The town is now accepting entries for its annual calendar photo contest, and the winning photos will be printed in the upcoming calendar and posted on the town’s Web site, along with each photographer’s name and a description of the image.

“The town distributes a free calendar to residents each year depicting local landmarks and special events, along with key dates and information about the town of Boone,” Mayor Loretta Clawson said. “The contest, now in its third year, provides a great opportunity to showcase some of our local talent.”

All photos must be taken within Boone town limits. Photos should represent all 12 months of the year. They may depict town-supported activities and attractions, such as Town of Boone Clean-Up Day, public parks, monuments, street clearing and parades.

Contest rules and entry forms are available at www.townofboone.net or at Town Hall. Each photo should be submitted in a separate folder and include a completed entry form. All prints must be at least 8” x 10” and be in horizontal format. Digital entries must include both a printout and a CD with the image being 8” x 10” at 300 dpi.

All entries will become the property of the town of Boone. By submitting an entry, participants grant permission of the publication of the photo and photographer’s name. Photos will not be returned. Anyone may enter the contest, and winners will be notified by Nov. 7.

Entries must be postmarked or turned into the Town Hall office on King Street with an entry form by Oct. 17. Entries may be mailed to: Greg Young, P.O. Drawer 192, Boone N.C., 28607.
