Life in Schoharie Contest Winner: Fall Serenity

With more than two hundred and seventy votes cast since Wednesday afternoon, Schoharie News readers have studiously selected Cobleskill resident Cheyla Bevins "Fall Serenity" submission as the victor of our first annual Life in Schoharie Photo Contest. There were nine photographs submitted overall. 

The winning photograph received 36% of votes

Ms. Bevins submission was the only photograph to reach one hundred votes, with Marvin Marsh's "Painted Night" the second closest at fifty-six. She will receive a $20 gift certificate to Cobleskill Wal-Mart for winning the contest, but in reality all of the photos submitted reflect that we are all the true winners for having such a beautiful place to call home.

Life in Schoharie Photo Contest Submissions

We have nine beautiful photographs to consider from across Schoharie County in our first "Life in Schoharie Photo Contest." The winner will be determined by which submission receives the most votes from our readership by Saturday noontime and they will receive a $20 gift certificate to Wal-Mart. The poll is located on the right-hand sidebar of the website. 

Good luck to all of our submissions and thank you for participating!

Life in Schoharie Photo Contest

Since the Schoharie News launched last fall many of our stories have featured tag-along photos, some supplied by organizations filing press releases and other taken originally by us, but whatever the case they have always added a little something extra to our articles.  

With that in mind, we would like to announce our inaugural "Life in Schoharie Photo Contest," where you can submit your photograph of anything Schoharie County to be considered for a $20 gift certificate to Cobleskill Wal-Mart.

The winner of the contest will be judged by the readers of the Schoharie News, who will have three days to review the photos before voting on their favorite submission. 

All contest entries must be e-mailed to aaaabraves@yahoo.com, with the subject "Schoharie News Photo Contest," by noon on Wednesday, and will shortly thereafter be published on the website for our readers to take into consideration. You must include your name and town of residence for your submission to count. 

Goodluck!
