2025 Annual Photo Contest now OPEN!

​Entries are being accepted for the 11th Annual SWCD Photo Contest! The contest is open to amateur photographers who reside in Hamilton County. Photographs will be showcased at our booth at the 2025 Hamilton County 4-H Fair. We will accept up to five photos per photographer.

We have a single category this year: Home is Where the Habitat Is. We're looking for photos of wildlife, native species, or other conservation visuals with a focus on habitat. 

Our theme was chosen in honor of the National Poster and Photo Contest held by the National Association of Conservation Districts. Youth photo contest participants are encouraged to participate in the national contest as well. Contact our office for more information or to submit a poster.

Photographers will be separated into youth and adult categories. Winners will be chosen by a panel of judges, and a People’s Choice Award will be chosen by social media interactions during the Hamilton County 4-H Fair. People’s Choice Award winners in youth and adult age divisions will receive a $50 prize. A panel of judges will choose additional award winners in youth and adult for a total of four winners.

Photo and entry forms are due Monday June 30th, 2025 at Noon
