Travel Writing Contest Winners, 2014

September 2, 2014 by DaveLeave a Comment

Lake-LouiseWe are excited to announce the three winners for this year’s travel writing contest. There were many submissions this year (thank you to everyone who submitted an entry or two). The three judges unanimously picked the top two winners in that order – competition for the third winner was more intense. We received entries from a number of countries and US states – for the past 6 or 7 years one of the winners has been from Los Angeles or Orange County. This year, all three winners are from California.

Also a big thank you to all our donors, especially to Eagle Creek for a number of the travel gear and Brinno for the cameras.
