Your Plane Could Be Featured On Recreational Aviation Foundation Greeting Cards
Your airplane could appear on the popular Recreational Aviation Foundation greeting cards. The RAF uses these cards as “Thank-you” notes to its thousands of donors and supporters. Show off your airplane out enjoying a recreational airstrip. Winners will receive a pack of high quality RAF greeting cards with their image on the front, just in time for the holidays.
This year, the RAF will award one winner in each region, and new this year: one winner in an 18-and-under youth category.
The contest is open to any RAF member: amateurs and professionals alike. The entry period has been set for October 1-November 1, 2018. Photos with airplanes, great scenery and people enjoying the experience are the most desirable.
The entry period runs from October 1, 2018 until 5 p.m. EST November 1, 2018. Submissions must include:
- Your name, (photographer’s name if different from yours; and, if entering a youth in the 18-and-under youth category, the age of the photographer)
- Email address
- Phone number
- Location of photo (airstrip and state)
- Please identify any faces in the image, and obtain permission from them for this use.
- If sending in photos of children, please have already obtained parent/guardian permission to use the images
- Limit of 5 images per person, please send only your best.
By submitting your photo(s), you give the RAF permission to use your photo in RAF publicity.
Email high resolution digital photos in .jpg, or .png format to: ewhite@theraf.org by 5pm EST November 1, 2018.
The judges are RAF volunteers who write and send all the RAF thank you cards. They will only have access to the photos; the photographer will remain anonymous during the judging. Judges will select a winner in each region. Each will receive a package of high quality greeting cards with their photo on the front; and their photo credit on the back.
