Friends of Ridley Creek State Park-2012 Calendar Sale & Photo Contest

Friends of Ridley Creek State Park Photo Contest and 2012 Calendar.

 

Each year, The Friends of holds a photo contest for ameteur photographers. "Over the years, we've received so many terrific submissions," said Carol Rubin. 

In order to make use of the photos and showcase the park, the Friends decided to create an annual calendar with the help of graphic designer Christine Bailey, who donated her time to the project.

"The calendar is in its third year and has become just as popular as the photo contest itself," added Rubin. 

The photo on the front cover of the 2012 calendar is a submission by Hollie Riley, who photographed her daughter admiring wedding flowers by the formal gardens. The photo on the back cover was submitted by Mitchell Davis, who won first place in the youth category and ended up writing about his experience at the park in his school newspaper.

The photo contest brings together like-minded people who love the park and the calendar allows them to take a little bit of the park home with them. So, whether you are interested in buying a calendar ($12/$10 for members) or participating on our 2012 photo contest in January, please visit www.friendsofrcsp.org or call 610-565-3877 for more information.
