As you probably noticed from our last post, there are a number of prizes available to the first place judged winners from each month’s photo contest. In order to keep track of those winners, we are trying to post and update this blog page each month with the new data.
In order to win a monthly prize you need to be a student at DCTC this year ( any program either semester) and win first place in the judged monthly contest AND be a paid member of the club ( $5) for the current school year.
At the end of the year ( May) we will put all first, second and third place winners for every month into a END OF YEAR contest for the grand prizes. Again you will need to be a paid member and current student of the club for the year. The winner of this contest will get to claim one of the GRAND PRIZES listed on the blog.
Congratulations to all the winners!!
