2012 Calendar Competition

Hertford Town Council have launched their 2012 Calendar Competition.

The council’s Town and Tourist Information Centre is running the competition, which is in its third year.

The closing date of the competition is 31st July 2011, after which 13 photographs will be selected for inclusion – one for each month, and one for the cover of the calendar.

The Mayor of Hertford, Cllr Sally Newton, will be one of the competition judges, and commented: "Hertford has a rich source of scenes for photographers to choose from - interesting and historic buildings, beautiful rivers and open spaces, and a wide range of events.  I hope photographers of every age and ability will take the opportunity to explore and photograph our town, and help to ensure the 2012 calendar represents the best of Hertford.  Many people buy the calendar to send to friends and family at Christmas, so this is also a chance to promote our town as a tourist destination in the year of the London Olympics."

Photographs must be submitted with an entry form, which can be obtained from Hertford Town and Tourist Information Centre by the Shire Hall, or from www.hertford.gov.uk   

There will be opportunities for local businesses to advertise on the pages of the calendar, and the Town & Tourist Information Centre can provide further details.
