Hosted by the Gilsum Recreation Committee
The Gilsum Recreation Committee will be holding a virtual photography contest to highlight scenes from what we individually and as a community are experiencing during the Covid-19 pandemic. All Gilsum residents and Gilsum STEAM Academy students are welcome to make photography submissions, no professional camera needed! In addition to the top winners receiving fun prizes from local businesses, the winning photographs will be featured on the Gilsum.org website, highlighted in the “Gilsum Bridge” publication, and will be archived with the Gilsum Historical Society! Be a part of Gilsum history!
