View Full Version : 2010 Lafayette Hotel Photo Contest
hollora 11-22-2010, 09:55 PM Geocaching Maine friends (I hope I have a few) - my daughter, Francis Family, entered this photo contest with an amateur photo on my Granddaugter (Ms Amara) and her best friend at a Native American Festival this summer (both of the children are members of the Penobscot). Becka was not expecting to win but did win her category. Not the Grand Prize is by voting. Everyone has a chance to vote for one category as the winner. Here is the link (http://lafayettehotels.biz/about/photo-contest/) and would you consider voting for the Fesitvals and Celebrations entry - #7 - the little girls dancing please? Thank you Everyone!

Please refer to Bro Rule # 128: "While forced into watching questionable television, a Bro does not reveal it in public" :D
hollora 11-25-2010, 07:37 PM Just a reminder in case you haven't voted ~ or if you have ~ read on ~ voting is open until Monday.
When you are running around shopping consider voting from your IPod, IPhone, etc. one vote per computer - or connection so hit those wi-fi spots. It, also seems the enabled phones you can vote once a day rather than only once per unit. Give it a try!
Here is the link (http://lafayettehotels.biz/about/photo-contest/) Thanks everyone! Oh - photo #7 the one with the little girls in blue.
pjpreb 11-25-2010, 08:59 PM Voted! Hope they win! What a great photo!:)
hollora 11-29-2010, 06:59 PM Thank you to everyone who voted for Rebecca's photo of Amara and her Best Friend Carmella ~ Becca won the Grand Prize! I personally appreciate, and know Becca does too, everyone who took the time to go to the Lafayette Hotel web site and vote!
Ekidokai 11-29-2010, 07:48 PM Fantastic. What did she get and what will be done with the picture?
hollora 11-30-2010, 10:27 PM I am not sure what Lafayette Hotels will do with the photo but I hope promote their Blue Nose Inn over the weekend of the Native American Fesitval at the College of the Atlantic in Bar Harbor next July - now that would be a natural.
As for the prize - it was on their website but I believe she got one night in a suite at the Bar Harbor Inn plus dinner that evening and breakfast in the morning. If you look at their website, that is a very generous, nice prize based on the restaurant prices alone.
In addition, as a category winner she one a one night stay at one of their hotels (randomly selected).
Again, thanks to everyone who voted. Rebecca has gotten some very nice comments on her photo.......which truly was candid and told a story. Her Mom wishes she could buy her a nice digital camera for Christmas - maybe another year. This year my thanks are to have each other AND Friends!
EMSDanel 12-01-2010, 06:38 PM That's very cool......... congratulations!

Hey, that IS cool! My first thought was "Can you make a camera cache out of it?" but it looks like you can't zoom in close enough to ID anyone.
