Tremont's Fourth Annual Photo Contest

The theme for this year's contest is “Past and Future.” As this is the Park’s 75th Anniversary and Tremont’s 40th, it seemed appropriate – a way to celebrate the wonderful history of this Park and of Tremont, as well as to look forward to the bright future of both.

While half of the theme can perhaps be interpreted most easily in a literal sense, (everyone has at least one picture of one the many historic structures in the Park) we encourage you to look beyond the obvious. There’s many ways one can look at the history of this area – some more readily apparent than others. And “future” can be looked at in many ways as well. As always, photos will be judged not solely on the quality of the image, but on its interpretation of and relevance to the theme. Since this theme could be a bit challenging, we’ll be putting an extra judging emphasis on unique interpretations and interesting approaches (though we will, of course, accept photos of your favorite Park cabin.) Be creative!

As always, all photos must be taken inside Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The grand prize is a voucher for admission to a Tremont program of your choice, up to a maximum value of $500. Second prize will cover up to $250 of admission to a Tremont program. Third prize is a $100 voucher towards admission to a Tremont program. These can be used by the winner, or may be transferred to a person of your choosing.

There will be three honorable mentions, each of which will receive a free Tremont water bottle. Additionally, we’ll feature the winner (and perhaps others) in our fall newsletter and on our Web site; any of the photos may show up in future publications. A committee of Tremont staff will select the winners.

Submissions are limited to five (5) per person. Amateur photographers only! Entries must be received by February 28th, 2010. Photos can be submitted electronically, by mail, or in person. Email josh@gsmit.org with questions.
