The Walls of Brandywine Creek Photo Contest Underway
If you like the outdoors, enjoy photography and want to have fun, think
about entering the “Walls of Brandywine Creek” photo contest. The
competition has just been launched and will run through June 30, 2006.
The subject is the historic stone walls in and around Brandywine Creek State
Park. One of those walls, inside the park, must be a key element in any
photo entered.
This contest is open to everyone and will be judged by an expert panel. The
winners will have the honor of having their work published in a wall
calendar or postcard book produced as a fund raiser for the Friends of
Brandywine Creek State Park.
Go to or call the park office for complete rules, or look for information at
www.destateparks.com. Catch your favorite shot in different seasons while
you enjoy one of the most magnificent parks in Delaware.
