                                                    The Savannas Preserve State Park Annual Photo Contest

                                                    The Friends of Savannas Preserve State Park invite all park visitors to enter its annual photo contest! Grab your camera, come have fun in natural Florida, and help share our park’s beauty through your lens. The emphasis of photographs should be on showing native species, natural landscapes, and people enjoying the Savannas.   

                                                    Entries will be accepted between October 1, 2011 and October 31, 2011. 

                                                    Photographs will be judged by an award-winning professional photographer. Ribbons will be awarded to first, second, and third place winners in each category, as well as a cash prize to the winner for 'Best in Show.'  

                                                    Photographs will be on display in the Savannas Education Center (2541 Walton Rd. in Port St. Lucie) for the month of November. Between November 4th and 7th, members of the Friends of Savannas Preserve State Park may vote for the People’s Choice Award. Only those whose memberships are current during that week will be eligible to vote in this category.
