Brittanica Dictionary defines community as “a group of people who live in the same area (such as a city, town, or neighborhood).” But on South Whidbey, we know community means so much more!

We want to hear from you about what makes our community so special. Put it in writing, on canvas, or in a photograph, and submit your work to be eligible for a $500, $250, or $100 Goose gift card prize! You do not have to be a professional writer or artist—entries will be judged on message, creativity, originality, and spirit.

Submissions are due on or before Friday, August 29 and the contest is open to all ages. Winners will be announced at the Goose Grocer Customer Appreciation Event on Saturday, September 13.

Before you start creating, please read the contest rules here first.
