Texas State Parks launches photo contest
Wednesday, January 25, 2023 by Tai Moses
Texas State Parks is holding a photo contest to celebrate its centennial anniversary. The contest will have four seasonal prize winners and the public will have the chance to vote on the grand prize winner at the end of the year. Prizes include park passes, HEB gift cards and “a curated state park experience.” Texas Parks and Wildlife Department spokesperson Whitney Bishop said in a news release, “We can’t wait to see the parks through our visitors’ eyes. There are so many special moments to capture, from watching a beautiful sunset to catching your first fish. This contest is about more than taking pictures. It’s about making memories.” All photos must be taken at a state park or natural area. Multiple entries are welcome. Read the contest rules here.
