A Special Photo Contest with a Healthy Goal
CONTEST CLOSED (November 20)
Winners will be announced later this evening
Do you have photos of your favorite Lake Superior lighthouses?
You can help someone recover quicker from surgery, earn recognition for your favorite lighthouses and get a prize to boot.
Essentia Health and Lake Superior Magazine have teamed up to find the 11 best Lake Superior lighthouse photos to use in a special joint-replacement rehabilitation program that will begin at Essentia Health - St. Mary's Medical Center in January. During the program, recovering patients will “walk” around Lake Superior, using lighthouse waypoints to meet personal rehabilitation goals. Photos of the lighthouses will be used, along with information about the lights, on a chart that will indicate a patient’s progress.
Judges will choose 11 of the photos to be reproduced in various ways for the rehabilitation program. Photographers of the photos chosen will be given credit for use of their photographs and will receive a one-year subscription to Lake Superior Magazine, a 2012 Lake Superior Mini Calendar, a Lake Superior Magazine Lake-and-Lighthouse Travel Mug and an Essentia branded polar fleece throw.
DEADLINE
November 20. CONTEST CLOSED.
