Photographers for the contest should be students at any
age up through high school and prior to post-secondary
education. Students are asked to submit photos that
illustrate/exemplify one of the ten verses/lines of “The
Optimist Creed”. This contest’s purpose is to expose young
people to “The Optimist Creed” and our philosophy of
Optimism and to assist them with developing an interest
in the area of photography.
The GATEway District will hold the district contest at our August convention, with attendees voting for the district winners . Clubs please try to have your contests finished prior to schools letting out for the summer, ( while still in contact with students).
*The rules give a lot of latitude to how clubs can hold their contest and what prizes they want to award . Our district is allotting the same amount of prize money as last year: $125 for first place , $75 for 2nd , and $50 for 3rd .
Clubs can contact Alan Flint, Activities Chair, with any questions: aflint@buckjones.com
