Garfield County Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring a photo contest! Start preening your favorite snaps now for a chance to see your work credited in an upcoming Garfield County calendar, website graphics and other local promotional materials. Just show us exceptional photography of the people, places and activities that make this area so special to you. Entries will be ranked by a People's Vote, with one overall Best of Show receiving $50 and a free calendar with their photo on the cover. Twelve runners-up will receive a free calendar including their entry. Calendars will be available for sale to the public in early Fall.

 

Here are the guidelines:

 

Entries will be judged by a People's Vote at the Garfield County Fair, August 12-14 with one Best of Show winner and 12 runners-up. There is NO entry fee. Photos may be checked in at the Garfield County Chamber of Commerce booth located in the Indoor Exhibit area until 10am on Friday (August 13th) , at which time registration closes and judging begins. Entries must be in 8 by10 inch enlarged format to ensure photo quality for printing and matted in 1/2 inch black construction paper with contact information included on the back. There is no limit on number of entries and you do not have to be a county resident to participate. We will only accept prints from high resolution color digital images- use the highest quality setting on your camera (no bigger than 10MB will be allowed.) or have negatives or slides professionally scanned. Out of county residents may snail mail their images to Anne Miller prior to judging at PO Box 297, Jordan MT 59337.

 

Winners will be announced following the Garfield County Livestock Sale on Saturday and the image files will be needed the week following the competition.

Any photos that contain recognizable people MUST be submitted with a Model Release Form, if not they will be disqualified. Although caution will be exercised with all work, the Garfield County Chamber of Commerce and its associates are not responsible for technical errors, damaged, incomplete, illegible, misdirected, separated, or undelivered entries.

Upon submission, the top 13 entries become the property of the Garfield County Chamber of Commerce. Contestants grant the Commerce unlimited usage and unrestricted rights of these top entries. We reserve the right to use the photos in printed or on-line materials and for educational, informational, and promotional purposes without paying compensation to the photographers or the subjects. Photos used in published materials will be submitted with credit for the photographer unless otherwise requested by the entrant. The Garfield County Chamber of Commerce reserves the right to publish the name of the contest winner.
