2009 Annual Simsbury Land Trust Photography Contest

Grab your camera and take a hike! Join over 50 other SLT members and students and submit an entry (or three) to our annual photography contest. Last year over 75 entries were submitted by Simsbury Land Trust members. The rules are simple, and there is no entry fee. All photos must be taken on an SLT property or at an Simsbury Land Trust sponsored event. The contest is open to all members of the Simsbury Land Trust (students do not need to be members.) Many of the photographs may be used in the annual report, membership and other brochures, and the website. If you would like any additional information, please contact the office at 651-8773.

Last Year, Scout Isaac Peacock and Assistant Scoutmaster Bill Rice were recognized for their photography.
