A new before and after category has been added, sponsored by Keep PA Beautiful, with an additional prize of $500 in each of the adult and student categories
The purpose of the contest is not to glorify litter, but to bring awareness to how litter threatens public health and safety, scenic beauty, property values, the environment and wildlife.
Entries will be judged on six criteria; 1. anti-litter message, 2. originality, 3. photographic technique, 4. quality of photo, 5. originality of title and 6. severity of the litter.
A top prize of $500 will be awarded in each of two categories: adult and student (through Grade 12).
Four additional prizes will be awarded with second place winners receiving $250 and third place $100 for each group.
Additional $500 prizes will be awarded in the new Before & After category to winning adult and student entries.
Send entries (limit five per person, no smaller than 4x6 and no larger than 8x10) to the Pennsylvania Resources Council, East Office, 1521 North Providence Road, Media, PA 19063.
High resolution digital submissions may be sent to lensonlitter@prc.org, or entered via the online entry form found at Lens On Litter Contest webpage.
PRC welcomes any person, business or organization interested in becoming a sponsor to join us in this effort to fight litter blight.
