Farm Families of Eastern North Carolina

We need your family photos to help us fill our 2009 photo calendar.  The calendar will feature the best photos of farm families that are a part of our family here at AgCarolina Financial.  Customers and employees of AgCarolina Financial are invited to enter our contest. 

Many families have several generations that work together daily in the faming operation.  These may include fathers, sons, son-in-laws and daughter-in-laws, and other family members.  Photos do not have to focus exclusively on farming, but may include:

1. Working on the farm
2. Farm activities
3. Family Reunions
4. Family Celebrations or Traditions
5. Sunday Dinners
6. Other family related activities

Location of subject should be within AgCarolina Financial’s territory. 

The preferred images are photographs 4X6 or larger, with glossy (not satin) finish.  When providing digital camera images, please give a high quality printout (4X6 or larger), and the digital file.  This file must be 1.5MB or larger so when enlarged it does not lose color or sharpness.  Emailed submissions of digital files will be accepted with all of the required information attached. 

Use of home printers does not produce images of high enough quality for enlargement and reproduction.  If you use your printer at home, please include the negative, CD file of the image, or email the digital file. 

All images will become the property of AgCarolina Financial.  No images will be returned.    

All entries must be received by August 15, 2008 and photos must be identified with name and address on the back of the picture (please use a label for this information).  Winning entries will be featured in the fall issue of the Farm Credit Leader and online at www.agcarolina.com.  Cash prizes will be:

*1st Place         $300.00
*2nd Place        $200.00
*3rd Place         $100.00

To submit an entry, simply complete the attached form and mail it along with your photo to AgCarolina Financial, PO Box 14789, Raleigh, NC  27620 Attn:  Linda Strickland.  If you have any questions, please call 800-951-3276, xt. 214 or inquire by email to lstrickland@agcarolina.com.
