As if you needed any more excuses to go hang out at the coolest bar in the Mad River Valley, the first round of Photo Chute Entries are now hanging in the Big Picture!
And starting Thursday, March 11, paper ballots will be available, both at the Big Picture and in the Valley Reporter.
So how do you vote? You can vote two ways: online and on paper. You can vote for as many photos as you like, but please only vote for each photo once. If you vote Online – go to the Flickr Photo Chute Page. All comments will count as votes. You can comment “vote” or something more specific like “This is such a super cool photo!” Paper ballots can be found in the Valley Reporter and at the Big Picture starting March 11. They will be collected at the Big Picture.
Why should I vote? Um… because you can win some really cool prizes for voicing your opinion! (If you vote online, please be sure to leave your name on your comment if your Flickr Name isn’t your real name.) You will have to be present at the Awards Party to collect your booty!
Remind me about the Awards Party… Sure! The Awards Party is March 20 at the Big Picture and will feature a smattering of door prizes, a really cool slide show of all the entries, the announcement and awarding for the Photo Chute Winners, and to top it all off, the super cool tunes of Wiley Dobbs, an awesome original jazzy bluegrass band.
May I suggest making a night out of it? Head to the Big Picture this weekend for a movie or dinner or music or some combination of all of that, and while you’re there, peruse the entries and drop a few votes into the ballot box. Remember that not all the entries are displayed yet, so go online to the Flick Photo Chute page and vote for them there too!!
