Selectmen sponsoring photo contest: What I LOVE about Milton!

October 6, 2009

The Milton Board of Selectmen is sponsoring a photo contest, “What I LOVE about Milton!”

The subject of the photo should be what you love about Milton.  No single or family only portraits are allowed. Group shots are fine (e.g. teams, classes, groups that congregate for a purpose or mission). Similarly, images of single businesses; but a shot of East Milton as a business district is fine.

Entries will be judged on content and composition. All entries are due by 11/15. The winner may be featured on the next Milton Annual Report. In addition, there will be a student award of a one time $125 scholarship.

You can find the complete rules and submission form here.

So get out there and good luck!
