Final Call for Photos for 2011 Kenosha Area Convention & Visitors Bureau Contest!

Kenosha, WI  (December 8, 2011) – Before this year comes to a close, be sure to enter your best photos in the 2011 Kenosha Area Picture Perfect Photo Contest, sponsored by the Kenosha Area Convention & Visitors Bureau (KACVB). This is an opportunity for area residents to share their photography talent and show their hometown pride by sharing with visitors what a wonderful place the Kenosha Area is, no matter the season. Photos help draw tourists to the community. Tourism, in turn, makes a positive impact on the local economy. The final day to enter the 2011 contest is December 31, 2011.
 

Each photo submitted has the chance to be used on KACVB’s web site, in the Kenosha Area Visitors Guide and other marketing, to promote the Kenosha Area as a fun and exciting place for out-of-town visitors. All photos submitted during 2011 will be judged and the top photo(s) will be awarded dinner for two at local restaurants. Photos will be judged based on content and quality. An entry form must be submitted with each photo.
 

Throughout the year and all four seasons, the KACVB accepts photos of recreational activities, landmarks, nature, festivals and events, and attractions. Possible images include golfing at Brighton Dale Links, cross-country skiing at Richard Bong State Recreation Area, fishing at Lake Michigan, boating at Lake Andrea, participating at a Civil War Museum event, or climbing the Southport Lighthouse.
 

Anyone is eligible to enter the contest, however the photos must be taken in Kenosha County.  For a complete set of the contest rules and an entry form, log on to the Kenosha Area Convention & Visitors Bureau’s web site at www.KenoshaCVB.com (look under Offers), e-mail mjumisko@kenoshacvb.com, call (262) 654-7307 ext. 13 or visit the KACVB Downtown Kenosha Visitor Information Center at 812 – 56th St. (Mon.-Fri. 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.).  Please note the downtown location will be closed Dec. 23, 26, and 30.
