And the Winners Are...

Congratulations to the winners of the Masonic Villages Photo Contest! Each winner received an Olympus D-545 4.0 Megapixel Digital Camera.

In an effort to save valued dollars, we sponsored the photo contest to increase our photo archives for marketing and promotional purposes.

We received more than 200 entries, making it difficult for our judges to choose only one winner in each category: nature, resident/staff interaction, residents by themselves or with loved ones, and staff in action. Thanks to all the residents, staff, families and friends who participated in our contest. A "thank you" also goes to our judges: Lori Stahl, professional photographer and owner of Stahl Gallery; Tony Sweigart, professional photographer and owner of Tony Sweigart Photography; and Dr. Hans-Erik Wennberg, Associate Professor of Communications, Elizabethtown College.
