The Town of Huntsville in-person Canada Day community celebrations and fireworks will be cancelled this year due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
But residents are still encouraged to celebrate Canada Day safely within the parameters of public health measures.
In light of this, the Town is excited to announce the launch of a Canadian Spirit Photo Contest.
“Are you celebrating with your household or with friends you haven’t seen in a while, now that outdoor gathering limits have changed?” asks a Town release, “on Canada Day do you wear as much red and white coloured clothing and accessories as possible? Do you camp, canoe or experience our beautiful landscape?”
To take part, you are asked to take pictures depicting the Canadian Spirit and submit them to the Town of Huntsville Canadian Spirit Photo Contest starting June 28th at noon until July 2nd at noon.
There are prizes to be won, including the top prize of $500 Downtown Huntsville BIA Gift Certificate.
The photo submissions will be judged on a number of criteria including, theme, esthetics and photography skill, creativity and inclusion of red and white colours etc.
The contest is for Huntsville residents only and you must be 19 years of age to enter.
