Enter The NSRWA 50 Places To Explore Contest!

By North and South Rivers Watershed Association January 30, 2020

2020 is NSRWA’s 50th Anniversary, and everyone is invited to celebrate with us all year long with activities, contests, and events. We’ve got a series of FREE walks in the watershed planned with NSRWA Environmental Educator Brian Taylor, or you can explore on your own. Each month we will highlight a town in our watershed with stories, social media posts, and more. Every week a property you can explore will be featured.

You can enter to win a monthly prize package by visiting the highlighted properties and posting your photos on Instagram @northsouthrivers with the hashtag #ExploreSouthShore. Once a month we will randomly choose a winner from the posts to receive a prize package.

Entering is as easy as 1-2-3!

  1. Check out our weekly 50 Places to Explore post on our website, Facebook, or Instagram.
  2. Visit that property and take a picture of the location or you and/or your friends and family exploring.
  3. Share the photo with us any time that month on our Instagram page @northsouthrivers with the hashtag #ExploreSouthShore and include the name of the property. Click here for contest rules.
