Morris County Photo Contest Winter 2018 Results
Winter 2018 Results
The Morris County Board of Freeholders would like to thank county residents who participated in the county’s first-ever photo contest — “Winter 2018 Scenes in Morris County.” There were many terrific entries, with so many county residents showing off their obvious, talents!
The contest encouraged participants to showcase Morris County’s quality of life and spaces and places. Winners were chosen from more than 180 entries by a special six-person panel. We would tell you that the choices were not easy, and there was lively debate before the winners were chosen. Winning photos may be used in County of Morris communication pieces and on county websites or newsletters.
Thank you for entering!
