Boundary County scenery featured in calendar
offered by the Fair Board |
|
July 29, 2015 |
 To see photographs of some of Boundary County's
most beautiful scenery, consider picking up your
copy of the Fair Board's 2016 calendar, now for
sale at the Fair Office; soon to be for sale at
the upcoming Boundary County Fair.
Earlier this year, the Fair Board sponsored a
contest, seeking photos of Boundary County that
best depicted this year's Fair theme,
"Home—Where the Heart Is." The contest was open
only to Boundary County residents, and all
photographs had to be local Boundary County
scenery. The winning photograph, thought to best
showcase Boundary County and best illustrate the
Fair theme, would be featured on the cover of
this year's Fair Book, and would also be used as
the cover photograph for this calendar. That
contest ended May 15.
Although the decision was a very difficult one,
John Buckley's forested river valley photograph
was selected as the contest winner. In addition
to illustrating the cover of the calendar and
Fair Book, Mr. Buckley's picture also won him a
cash prize of $100.
Dozens of other photographs submitted in the
contest are included on the various monthly
pages of the Fair Board's calendar. All
submitted contest photographs will be on display
during the Fair at the Exhibit Hall Annex. The
calendar can be purchased at the Fair Office or
at the upcoming Fair for $14.99. Proceeds from
sale of the calendar will help pay for
fairground improvements.
"Thank you to everyone who submitted Boundary
County photos," said the Fair Board.
