by | Jul 19, 2020 | Non-Profits

Friends of the Rapphannock invites all area children ages 4-17 to participate in their game of Rappannock Nature Bingo! Just take pictures on your next hike or river adventure and enter the contest at this link –  FOR KIDS PHOTO CONTEST

To participate in FOR Nature Bingo you must:

  • Be a nature-loving kid ages 4-17.
  • Have parental permission to participate.
  • Download the Bingo Board for your age group.
  • Have the ability to get outdoors safely.  You don’t necessarily need to go to the river (but if you do- wear a life jacket), many of the items in these BINGO squares can be found literally in your backyard or your neighborhood if you keep your eyes open.
  • Once you complete a row on the bingo board, upload the board here – and we’ll mail you an FOR sticker.

In addition to the above rules, to participate in the FOR Kids Photo Contest you must also:

  • Have access to digital photography equipment either a cell phone or a digital camera.
  • Shoot and edit the photos yourself.  Parents may upload them to the contest web page, but the actual photography must be done 100% by the kid.
  • Upload your photos HERE between July 15, 2020 and August 12, 2020.
  • Give FOR permission to post your photo(s) and your name on our website, social media platforms, our newsletter, press releases and the like.
  • Winners will be notified and announced the week of August 16-22.

All FOR Nature BINGO players will receive an FOR sticker for participating in the contest.  One lucky BINGO player will win an FOR “Save the Crabs” t-shirt.

The FOR Kids Photo Contest will be judged by FOR staff members.  There will be a winner chosen in each age group (4-8 yrs old / 9-12 yrs old/ 13-17 years old) and there will also be a grand prize winner. Age group winners will receive a t-shirt.  The grand prize winner will receive a Family Environmental Excursion with one of our FOR River Stewards. (FOR Staff and their immediate family members are not eligible to receive prizes).
