For my birthday every year I like to gift a DPC membership. This year, I would like to have a little challenge for 12 yrs old and under.

Entrants: Email me one entry, and on January 6, I will pick a winner. The challenge will end at midnight, Saturday January 6, and the winners will be notified, and winning entries posted here.

Good luck to all entrants. Parents if you have any questions, please email me.

Blessings to all on the New Year!

Linda Hall

PS: Once I start getting some entries, I will be posting them on my website, and will put a link here, and in my profile.

Just a reminder that parents need to sign a waiver in order to allow children under 13 to use DPC, details of which can be found here.

Thanks Manic, I appreciate you mentioning that, and pointing to it so that parents will be "forewarned"!

Thanks Tim!

I'm hoping for a good response.

Here where I live, I have some "digital girlz" that I got cameras for and have been teaching them digital photography. They love it, and I figured that encouraging more kids would be fun.

In exchange for bumping this generous offer, I'm going to sneak in a couple of links relevant to people with an interest in kids and photography:

Podcast of interview with mentors and students from the First Exposures mentoring Project based in San Francisco.

During the show, one of the callers mentioned a link to a project in Guatemala called FotoKids.

bumping for the evening crowd...

I'm seriously looking for entries here...so far only 2 - is there "no market" for memberships for younger folks?? Surely there must be more people interested in trying for a membership for a deserving kid!

Happy Birthday Linda! What a wonderful opportunity for young budding photographers.

My 8 year old daughter (EGoobie) would like to enter but we have a question. Is this offer only open to new accounts or is it also available to those who have a profile but are not subscribed?

Why don't you give it to someone who would get more use out of it?

O.K. she is excited now:-) Once she picks something out we will send it to you.

Hmmm, I am trying to think who else here has a youngster who would be interested....the only one my daughter and I can think of is Kita.

Anyone know of others who would enjoy the challenge?

My daughter,

Kita, would more than qualify for the position...but I have already paid her membership for another year. So I think it is only fair that it go to someone else. So thanks all for the PM's.

Absolutely, he can use ANY camera!

Just a reminder that this challenge is for ANY child interested, and it does not matter if your child already has a membership, they would simply get another year. It would be great if the membership goes to a child who doesn't already have a membership, but I am not going to leave out all the kids who already have one, but would like to participate for the chance to add on a year. It's all good!

Come on - send those entries to me!
