WASHINGTON - The Pic Your Park Instagram contest was recently launched by the National Park Foundation, the official nonprofit partner of the National Park Service, and invites U.S. park goers of all experience levels to submit snaps of themselves in national parks around the country to be included in the draw to win numerous prizes.
Participants rack up points by using #PicYourParkContest in their Instagram posts now through September 28. As people visit more parks, they receive more points, and can gain extra points for posting photos at less-visited parks. All 417 parks in the National Park System are included, as are national trails, national heritage areas, and more. To collect points, and in order to be selected and contacted for prize redemption, all participants must have a public profile on Instagram. The grand prize winner will be selected based on the highest number of points at the conclusion of the contest and notified in mid-October via direct message on Instagram.
A full list of prizes, rules, the leaderboard, and instructions are available online at the contest webpage.
