We are pleased to announce a digital photo contest focused on capturing the beauty, essence, nature and uses--in each of the four seasons, of
Salem Sound and its watershed communities of Beverly, Danvers, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Marblehead, Peabody and Salem.
 
Our goal is to capture the flavor of Salem Sound, including its watershed. The Salem Sound ecosystem includes the salt marshes, rocky coastline, beaches, waters, harbors and islands in Salem Sound, as well as the upland rivers, ponds and streams that flow into Salem Sound.

•There is a one-time entry fee of $5 for SSCW members; $15 for non-members. Become a member at $35 or above and entry fee is waived!
