Prizes to be Won in YC Winter Photo Contest

Yukon College is celebrating the season and boosting the College Facebook page with a Yukon winter photo contest.

 

The Cold Snaps photo contest is open to all Yukoners, with the exception of Yukon College staff. A judge’s panel will award prizes to the top three photographers who capture an outstanding image of winter. The first place winner will receive a Canon PowerShot digital camera, second place will win a $100 gift certificate for the iTunes Store and third place will take away a seven inch digital photograph frame. The contest kicked off December 4th and all submissions must be in by February 12th, 2010 by 4 p.m. Winners will be announced February 26th.

 

“We’re using Facebook for this contest to show Yukoners that our page is a great way to keep in touch with what’s going on at the College,” says Jacqueline Bedard, Director of College Relations. “The College Facebook page helps us connect with prospective students and others who are interested in what we do.”

 

To enter, participants need to become a “fan” of the College’s Facebook page (www.yukoncollege.yk.ca/facebook) and follow the instructions listed to submit an entry form with their original photograph, taken between October 31st, 2009 and February 12th, 2010. Submissions will be posted in an album on the Facebook site.
