Do you enjoy taking photographs? Have great shots of your children? Favorite vacation scenes? Maybe your passion is capturing nature in your own backyard. If you take photos for the fun and joy of it, you are eligible to participate in Bluffton Public Library's Amateur Photo Contest.
The photo contest, proudly sponsored by Greg's Pharmacy, will award more than $800 in prizes! First place prize is valued at $175, second place at $75 and third place at $50. Over $500 worth of additional prizes will be awarded via random drawings that will be held throughout the contest so you may win a prize for your photo entry even if your entry is not selected for first, second or third place. Better yet, you may win a random prize and a first, second or third place prize.
