The Kingaroy Rotary Club has announced that the theme for the club’s 2015 calendar will be “South Burnett Landscapes”.
The 13 photos for the calendar will be selected from entries in a photographic competition, sponsored by the club, which will be judged at this year’s Kingaroy Show.
“Special Class 28” is for photos of landscapes anywhere within the South Burnett region. Townscapes and street scenes are excluded, although a town as a non-prominent part of the landscape may be acceptable.
All entries must be landscape format and titled, preferably in a way to depict the area where the photo was taken.
Entry fee is $1.10 and prize money us 1st $50, 2nd $30, 3rd $20, 4th $15 and 5th $10.
For more information, contact Chief Steward Neil Winter on (07) 4164 3107.
