Patch Picture of the Week Contest

PHOTO CONTEST: Fitness

Our weekly contest offers readers the opportunity to win a gift card.

Beach weather is coming: and soon, the bathing suits will be coming out. But even if it were the middle of winter, we know there are still countless Patch readers who make physical fitness a part of their routine. So, with that in mind, our photo contest topic this week is "fitness." Whether you're a fitness guru, a local gym owner or simply someone who likes to exercise, we want to see your photos. Upload a photo of a fitness activity, and you'll have a chance to win a $25 gift card. We’ll take submissions until 5 p.m. May 27. The winner, chosen by Patch editors, will be announced on May 28. The prize? A $25 gift card. We know it can be hard to choose just one, so you may enter as many photos as you'd like. If you like a particular photo…

WINNER: Mother's Day Photo Contest

We've crowned our winner.

Thank you to all those who uploaded photos for our Mother's Day photo contest. It's never easy to choose just one photo as the winner of our $25 gift card. After much deliberation, we had to go with Elizabeth Spinney's photo of her mother at her brother's wedding.  "My mother survived breast cancer last year following a mastectomy, and recently she celebrated my brother's wedding. She worked so hard to find a dress that was both elegant and covered her scars--doesn't she look beautiful (and so happy)," Elizabeth wrote in the caption with her photo. Congratulations, Elizabeth. We'll be contacting you to make arrangements to get you your prize. Return to Patch tomorrow for our next photo contest: "cute" photos!
