CSHRA 2nd Annual Rural Photography Contest
Call for Submissions!

We want your pictures! CSRHA invites both amateur and experienced photographers to submit their photographs of rural health and rural life for CSRHA's Second Annual Rural Health Conference Photography Contest.

There are two categories with which to submit entries:

  • Rural Health: Subjects that demonstrate or represent the provision of rural health care.
  • Rural Life: Rural landscapes, communities, animals, people, etc.

CSRHA will print and mount the photos for display at the annual conference. Conference participants will select the winning photographs from each category, and the winners will be announced on the final day of the conference. Furthermore, the photographs will be auctioned off at the Rural Champion Awards Luncheon, and the proceeds will go towards advancing the mission of CSRHA.

All entries will be published on the conference website, and the winning photographs will be highlighted in the Winter 2008 issue of CSRHA's electronic news publication, The Rural Health Advocate.
