MINT HILL, NC – The Mint Hill Chamber of Commerce is now accepting entries for the annual “Best of Mint Hill Photo Contest.”
Hosted by the Chamber and sponsored by 1st Choice Properties, the contest aims to capture everything that represents the best of “Our Hometown” of Mint Hill. “Every year, I enjoy seeing those photos and seeing the people that participate and what they bring,” says 1st Choice Properties Owner Anna Granger. “I’m excited to be able to continue to help support the local community by highlighting both local talent and what makes our town of Mint Hill special.”
Photos can include events, people, landscapes, sunsets, nature or anything else that captures what makes Mint Hill such a special place to live, work and play. The Chamber encourages photographers to capture moments from iconic Mint Hill events like the Mint Hill Chamber of Commerce Golf Classic, Mint Hill Madness, and the Mint Hill Chamber of Commerce Pop Up Christmas Shop. They also hope to receive submissions that capture Mint Hill landmarks and events happening at local schools.
Entrants may submit up to three photos in each of four categories: Celebrations/Events, Nature/Parks/Trails, People, and Streetscapes/Town Landmarks. All submissions must be digital, high resolution photos devoid of watermarks. Contestants must submit a completed and signed entry form with every photo. Participants under 18 must have a parent or guardian’s signature. All photos submitted will be eligible for use on the Mint Hill Chamber’s website, social media and other marketing materials.
The winners of the contest will receive generous cash prizes courtesy of 1st Choice Properties: $250 for the grand prize winner and $100 for second place. Winning photos will be featured on the Chamber’s website and displayed in the Chamber’s offices.
The Chamber will be accepting photos through November 30. Winners will be announced on December 16. Email photos to Paige McKinney at minthillchamberofcommerce@gmail.com.
