2016 BCHS Calendar Contest - Theme: Landmarks of Bland County

We are currently accepting photographs for our 2016 BCHS Calendar with the theme, Landmarks of Bland County. The rules for photographs and submission are:

· Photographs should be of landmarks in Bland County. They must be recognizable as located in Bland County. For example, do not stand atop Big Walker Lookout and take the view of Wythe County!

· Since this is a historical calendar, please try to write a short description of the landmark and why it is so considered by Bland residents. We will try to include more historical background in our 2016 calendar.

· The photographs must have been taken during the past five years (2011-2015).

· This year we will only be accepting digital images. No prints, please. Send to info@blandcountyhistsoc.org

· We request that you submit pictures as they were taken. No “photoshoping,” no filters or other enhancements.

· No pictures accepted after July 15, 2015.

· Voting will take place from July 16 – August 15, 2015. The Calendars will be ready for the Festival of Leaves in Oct.
