2014 Kentucky Rural Health Day observance includes a photography contest; submissions are due by Nov. 7

Written by Unknown on 8:18 PM ,
Part of the 2014 Kentucky Rural Health Day celebration this year is the "Bridges to Rural Health" Photo Contest.

Participants are asked to submit photos that express this year's theme, "Bridges." Whether you depict this with a photograph of one of the many beautiful bridges in Kentucky or creatively (a bridge can be many things) the organizers say to submit pictures that depict what rural means to you.

Only Kentucky residents are eligible to participate in the contest and all photos must have been taken in Kentucky. Submissions are due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, Nov. 7. Click here for contest details. For more information email chris.salyers@uky.edu or follow the Kentucky Office of Rural Health on Facebook.
