Facebook Cover Photo Contest: Send In Your Spring Pics!

North Kingstown got its first dose of spring-like weather this past week with 70-degree temperatures. Now that we've busted out the sandals and sunglasses and put away the snow shovels and boots, we at North Kingstown Patch have decided it's time to switch things over on our Facebook page, too.

Right now, we have a beautiful picture of a snow-covered Wickford Village as our cover photo. That simply will not do now that the warmer weather is approaching.

Here's where you all come in: click the "upload" button above and add your spring photos of North Kingstown. From now until Friday, April 19, we'll be accepting spring-themed photos for us to use as our cover photo on Facebook. 

Be creative and try to capture the essence of the town to represent NK on Facebook.

There's no age requirement to submit: You just have to be a NK Patch user and be able to create a 100 percent original piece of work owned by you for us to use. You agree to grant Patch the royalty free, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive right and license to use the work on North Kingstown Patch’s Facebook page. You must have permission to show all individuals seen in the work. If minor children are included in the work, you must be their parent or guardian, or obtain written consent from their parent or guardian prior to submitting the work. All entries must be at least 399 pixels wide and cannot contain any advertising (such as a prominent Coca Cola logo). 

We'll close acceptance for entries on Friday, April 19 at noon. Then, it's up to you again. Your local editor will choose the front-runners and create a poll for the readers to make the final decision.
