The deadline for the August Zoom Challenge is Friday, August 30 and the theme is 'Summer Fun At The Track.' We’re looking for photos of candid moments at the track, in the winner’s circle, in the paddock, fans interacting, people cheering at the races, racing shots, etc.
You’ll have a perfect opportunity to take these photos this weekend during the Bring A Friend National Challenge from August 23 – 25.
You can use your camera or your smartphone, but remember that photos should be a minimum of 72 dpi.
Photos are due by 5:00 p.m. on Friday, August 30. A committee will select a handful of the best entries which will be included in a poll on SC’s website. Readers will then have the chance to vote for the photo they like the best. We’ll also post some of our favourite entries on our Pinterest page. Email your photos to [email protected].
August winner will receive a great Fan Club Swag Prize Package ($50 value) and the six monthly winners will be eligible to win a grand prize which will include a $50 gift card to the racetrack of their choice and an enlargement of their winning photo framed or plaque mounted.
