Children's Photo Contest Benefits Parenting Now!

The 29th annual Lane County Children’s Photo Contest begins in February with a benefit for Parenting Now!, formerly Birth To Three. The Contest judges expression, photography skill and the story told by the photo. It is not a beauty contest.

            Parenting Now! will receive $25 of each February photography session. The Contest continues through March, with awards and prizes announced in May. The three professional photographers are Bruce Berg (541-726-6119), Sheri Hubbs (541-870-5555) and Tom Ulrich (541-461-2511).

            The Contest offers awards in 40 categories and prizes with a total value of $4,000.

            Parents of children up to age 12 are eligible for the special rate of $49, which includes the customized photography session, a digital file for use on online sites, and a 4”x 6” entry in the Contest. All of the photos will be displayed at Valley River Center.

Winners will be announced at Valley River Center the day before Mothers Day.
