People from the Estevan area have been celebrating their favourite memories from this summer through the Southeast Lifestyles photo contest.

The contest, which has the tagline of That was the Best Summer Ever, will run weekly in Lifestyles on Sept. 14, 21 and 28. The top 12 photos, as selected by the Lifestyles staff, will run in this week’s paper on Pages A8 and A9, along with ads from businesses that are sponsoring the contest.

The 12 photos will also appear online on the www.estevanmercury.ca website. People can go to the Mercury’s website to vote for their favourite photo.

“They can go to our website as many times as they want and vote as many times as they want,” said sales manager Deanna Tarnes.

The photo that receives the most votes receives a free custom canvas from Dave Rosenbaum Photography.

Other photos that were submitted for the contest will appear in the Sept. 21 and 28 editions.

The Mercury has received photos of flowers, children, local attractions, vacations, a wedding and much more.

It goes to show how much fun people were having during their summer holidays, she said, and the fun that they can have in southeast Saskatchewan, as many of the pictures focused on activities in the region.

The deadline to vote in the photo contest is Sept. 26 at noon. The winner of the photo contest will be announced in the Sept. 28 edition of Southeast Lifestyles.
