Enter Hayward’s 2024 Vacation Guide Cover Contest
*Contest Currently Closed*
Imagine YOUR credited photo winning $500 and appearing on a state-wide publication that reaches tens of thousands of visitors every year. Hayward Lakes Visitors & Convention Bureau is hosting a photo contest for the cover of our 2024 vacation guide!
This photo will appear on the vacation guide cover as well as be prominently featured in other Hayward Lakes marketing efforts throughout the year. From our website to social media, your image will have incredible reach and visibility!
Submissions will be accepted from June 1, 2023 until August 31, 2023.
What kind of photos are we looking for? Of course we want the incredible lake vistas you come to enjoy. But we REALLY want to see your families (don’t forget about your pets) enjoying our area on bicycles, ATVs, or snowmobiles; out on the lake or at busy community events; or enjoying activities like skiing and ice fishing. We want to see how you experience the Hayward area!
Photos will be reviewed and evaluated by the Hayward Lakes Visitors & Convention Bureau staff and Executive Committee. The winner will receive $500!
