Photos should be submitted to the registration desk at the time of registration, no later than Friday morning.

The photos don’t have to be mounted or framed, but do have to be on 8X10 photo paper, as well as digitally formatted on a disc.  We will separate them out according to the category for viewing in the sponsor tent all of Friday and until noon on Saturday.  At that time, we will count the ballots and announce the winners that evening.
