Bluffton Public Library is proud to announce its second annual amateur photo contest. Whether you're an avid or novice photographer or somewhere in between, you are encouraged to participate!

The photo contest, proudly sponsored by Greg's Pharmacy, will award more than $600 in prizes! This year's special feature is a $50 cash prize awarded for the best night scene in addition to two new youth categories, courtesy of the Friends of the Library. First, second and third place prizes will be awarded for all age categories (adult, high school and youth).

Additional prizes will be awarded via random drawings that will be held throughout the contest, so you may win a prize regardless of whether or not your photo places in the contest. Better yet, you may win a random prize and a first, second or third place prize.

Contest guidelines, criteria and registration information are available at Greg's Pharmacy, Bluffton Public Library and online at www.blufftonpubliclibrary.org. Entries will be accepted at the library from June 4 through July 28, 2012.
