Tourism announces photo contest
The Morrow County Tourism
Committee is sponsoring a
Morrow County photo contest.
The contest will run from April
18 until June 15.
Claudia Hughes, chairperson
of the committee, explained,
"There is almost a constant
stream of requests for in
teresting pictures of Morrow
County. Yet residents of the
county know the real pictures
que areas of the county a lot
better than a professional
photographer ever could. By
sponsoring this contest we
hope to catch the beauty and
enjoyment that is here, and be
able to use a local photographer
in our tourist pam phlets."
There will be three categories
in the contest, but there will not
be age distinctions within the
categories: tourist facilities or
sites; community events or
premises; and scenic land
scapes (all seasons).
A first, second and third
prize will be awarded of $25,
$20, and $15 for each category.
Use of any photo for publicity
purposes would be credited to
the photographer. Entries must
be no smaller than 3 x 5 inches,
and no larger than 8 x 10 in
ches. All entries are to have the
category entered, the entrant's
name, address, phone number,
and where the picture was
taken on the back of the photo.
Winners must be willing to per
mit reproduction of their pic
ture and furnish a negative if
requested. "We are sorry, but
we w on't be able to return
photographs, as the number of
entrants we hope to receive
would make it an impossibly
large task ," said Hughes.
There is no entry fee to enter
the contest.
Entries may be submitted in
a sealed envelope at any of the
city halls in Boardman, lone, Ir-
rigon or Heppner. They also
may be submitted to members
of the Tourism Committee.
Questions regarding the con
test may be directed to Hughes,
676-5536, or to Joe Hopkins,
481-2356. "We hope to catch
the beauty of the county," said
Hughes, "as we who live here
see it and enjoy it. It would be
wonderful if every photog
rapher in the county submitted
their best shots for us to choose
from. And who knows, if we
used their picture in our adver
tising, they might be dis
covered."
