Guys Caring for Kids Photo Contest
Why not celebrate Father’s Day by capturing a photo of your favourite Dad having fun interacting with the kids or grandkids? The 5th Annual Guys Caring for Kids Photo Contest challenges photographers to capture the visual stories of men in caring relationships with children. Submissions are being accepted until June 27.
Although men are highly involved in the lives of children as fathers, uncles, grandfathers, friends, coaches and neighbours, the majority of visual images in the media still feature females in this role. Several organizations have come together to celebrate the interactions of men with our younger generations.
Photo submissions may include, but are not limited to, the following activities:
- Doing chores or daily activities together
- Unstructured play
- Reading or doing homework
- Recreational or leisure activities
- Cuddling
Prizes will be awarded for winning submissions. The previous contests have featured an excellent variety of entries, judged by professional photographer James Masters, which have been on display around the Grey Bruce region. Last year’s winning submissions and the 2014 registration form can be viewed at: http://www.publichealthgreybruce.on.ca/Family/Fathering/AnnualPhotoContest/2014/Index.htm.
The 2014 registration form can also be picked up at the Grey Bruce Health Unit, 101 17th, Street East, Owen Sound.
