Racine County is delighted to launch the 2024 Racine County Photo Contest, an initiative that invites all amateur and professional photographers to capture and share the splendor of our county. This contest seeks to collect images that showcase the vibrant community, stunning landscapes, and iconic landmarks of Racine County from the East end to the West end, from Spring to Winter.
Photographers are encouraged to let their creativity flow and submit photos that illustrate the diversity and beauty of Racine County. The contest is open from now until November 27, 2024, providing ample time for participants to explore and photograph the county throughout the seasons.
To participate, photographers should submit their photos via the contest link, providing their first and last name, email, and the photo’s location to receive full credit for their incredible work. This acknowledgment not only celebrates the photographer's contribution but also serves as a curated guide to the picturesque sights within our county. If people are photographed, please be sure to have them complete the media release form that is found at the above link.
Once the contest ends, a panel will choose a winning photo that will hold the honor of being featured on an Educators Credit Union credit/debit card. Additionally, more selected photos will be published in a 2025 Racine County Calendar, which will be available to order at the end of 2024, as well as used for county outreach materials, presentations, and social media platforms.
Racine County is committed to supporting its community programs and nonprofits. By participating in this contest, photographers contribute to a visual narrative that strengthens community bonds and promotes the local beauty and culture.
Racine County is home to a rich tapestry of landscapes and communities. From the serene shores of Lake Michigan to charming Downtown Burlington, the county offers a unique blend of natural beauty and community spirit. This photo contest aims to capture the essence of Racine County as seen through the lenses of those who experience its charm daily.
We eagerly anticipate the diverse perspectives that will be submitted, offering everyone a chance to view Racine County through the eyes of its residents and visitors. Let's come together to highlight the place we call home and celebrate the stories that make our county unique.
