House Minority Leader Tony McCombie is launching her fifth annual Spring Photo Contest for residents throughout her 89th Legislative District. The Leader is calling on residents to capture compelling photos of people, landscapes, or landmarks throughout northwest Illinois to showcase the beauty of spring.
“Every year I am impressed with the photo selection that comes from this contest,” said McCombie. “Our community has a lot to offer and to be able to show it off in photos and showcase the amazing talent we have is a win-win.”
To participate, interested area residents can submit a photo that best represents the people and places of the 89th District—including any statues and monuments. The winning photos will be displayed in Rep. McCombie’s Springfield and Savanna offices.
Rep. McCombie will choose winning entries and invite the photographers for an unveiling at the Savanna office. The winning photos will be on display for the rest of the 104th General Assembly.
The contest rules are as follows:
- Participants are asked to submit their photos by email to [email protected]
- Photos must be taken in the 89th District
- Photos must be taken during this spring
- Photos are due ASAP and winners will be announced on June 21st
- Photos must be sent in high resolution
- In the email, please include the photographer’s name, home address, email, phone number, and where the photograph was taken
An 89th District map can be found on Rep. McCombie’s website at repmccombie.com. Participants seeking more info can call the district office at (815) 291-8989.
