Last year, five schools across country each earned a $2,000 donation from Thomas Built Buses through the annual Back to School Photo Contest. This year, it could be your school!
To celebrate riding the big yellow school bus back to school, Thomas Built Buses is once again hosting their annual Back to School Photo Contest. This contest is your chance to share one of your best Back to School photos and possibly win a $2,000 donation to your school.
To enter, visit the Thomas Built Buses Facebook page (www.facebook.com/thomasbuiltbuses) between August 1 and September 15, “Like” the page, and click on the special “Back to School Photo Contest” tab. Enter a photo that best represents the fun, excitement or nostalgia of riding the bus and the Back to School season. You can view and print the flyer to share with others here.
On September 16, the voting period begins for all eligible photos. Ask your friends and family to vote once per day for your photo. Then, on October 1, the top 50 winning photos from the popular vote will be reviewed by a panel of independent judges who will choose the top five final winners.
Five winners will each receive a $2,000 donation for the school of their choice. Plus, the winning photos may be used on the Thomas Built website and in local, regional or national media. To view full contest rules or to learn more, visit Thomasbus.com/contest.
