The City of Sartell is sponsoring a photo contest, asking residents to submit photos that show what they love in the city.
Appropriately enough, the contest began on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14, and will run through April 18.
The grand-prize winner will receive a gift basket valued at $250.
Any person can submit up to five photos with the theme of “Why I Love Sartell.” The 10 finalists’ names in the contest will be announced May 7.
Online voting for the grand-prize winner will occur from May 8-22. On May 8, the city will announce details on its Facebook page. The winner will be announced at Sartell Summerfest on June 10.
Photos will be judged by lighting, uniqueness and overall impact that evokes emotion and pride as captured by the photographer.
