PHOTO CONTEST
Are you going to have the best summer ever?!

One explanation for why the Torah was given in a
desert is that if the Torah can apply in the desert, it can apply anywhere. No matter what exciting summer plans you may have, there is a Jewish angle. Find that angle and send us a photo of an inspiring Jewish moment this summer. Our distinguished panel of celebrity judges will select winning photos. It can be a picture of anything that has Jewish meaning; the kotel, a chesed project, a flower, anything. Include a 3-5 sentence explanation of why this photo has Jewish meaning for you and you may win the grand prize.

Jpeg photos can be sent to jbell@agudathsholom.org
All submissions due by August 25th
Open to 6th through 12th graders

The winning photographer will receive the grand prize and have the opportunity to share their meaningful summer
moment with the shul. Photos from the contest will be
displayed in Agudath Sholom this coming Fall. Show us your Camera skills!
Have a great summer,
Your Friendly Panel of Judges
