Summer cover photo contest begins for County News Facebook pages | Community Spirit

The official start of summer is Wednesday, June 20 and that means it's time to switch out our cover photos for the County News Facebook pages.

Starting Wednesday, June 18 you can submit a photo that you think best represents summer in your county. You can e-mail the photo to cNews@kfvs12.com or click here to upload them. With the photo, make sure to include your name, what county it represents and where in that county the picture was taken.

On Monday, July 2 submissions for the contest will end and we will put all of the photos into a slideshow for each county. Viewers can then vote for which photo they want to see as that county's Facebook cover photo.

Everyone can check their county's Facebook page on Friday, July 13 to see which photo won! If there is no photo, or the photo hasn't changed, that means we didn't receive any submissions for your county. Check back with us for the next contest and you can submit one of your own!

At the moment, we only have 15 Heartland counties represented on our Local News websites, but we look forward to adding more counties in the future. Our current 15 include:
