Get focused! A new Focus on Fun Contest will begin soon!
It won't be long before you will be able to start sending us your best shots in the 2nd Annual Focus on Fun Contest!  If you are an amateur photographer and you would like us to notify you when the contest begins later this year, just send us an email to communityrelations@jocogov.org.  Once again this year, there will be no entry fee and every shot you enter will give you a chance to win cash, prizes and more.  You will be able to enter up to three photos in each category, and all of your pictures will be considered for use on www.jcprd.com and for placement in a variety of JCPRD publications, displays and presentations.
