Participants can vote for multiple photos within each category but only once per image. To vote, click on the photos you wish to select, indicated by a green check mark in the upper left corner. After making your selections, click the blue Submit button at the bottom of the page.

The categories open for voting are:

The deadline to vote is Friday, August 9. Winners will be determined by the number of votes each image receives. In the event of a tie, both images with the highest number of votes in a category will be selected as winners and will receive recognition.

Winners will be announced on Friday, August 16, through the Department’s social media platforms, including Facebook, X, Instagram, and NextDoor (@pwcparks), as well as in the August issue of the Park Bench newsletter. Winners will be notified using the contact information provided during entry.
