Entering is easy. Just click on http://pdn.upickem.net/engine/Welcome.aspx?contestid=177007

(Or go to www.peninsuladailynews.com and look for the Little Slugger Photo Contest button in the middle of the Web page (below “Hot Links” and just left of “Peninsula Poll.”)

Follow the instructions for registering, then post a photo of your young baseball or softball player — or T-ball player — and tell us about him or her in a short caption (about 10 words) describing who is in the picture, where it was taken and what team is represented.

The contest is free, but only residents of Clallam County or Jefferson County can enter photos.

All entries must be submitted on the Web — sorry, no entries by mail or in person.

To enter a photo, you must have taken the picture yourself, have the permission of the person or people in the photo (or their legal guardians) and be age 13 or older.

Parents and guardians may enter photos taken by (or of) their children under age 13.

You may also enter a picture of yourself, with the permission of the photographer.

The deadline for entries is Wednesday, June 24, at 11:59 p.m., after which the public in online voting will determine which lucky sluggers will win.

The two winners will be contacted the afternoon of Tuesday. July 7.

The first-place winner will receive a $100 Swain’s gift certificate. Second place will receive a $50 Swain’s gift certificate.

The Little Slugger Photo Contest is sponsored by the three newspapers of the North Olympic Peninsula — Peninsula Daily News, Sequim Gazette and Forks Forum.

The lighthouse was built in 1878 when Congress approved $8,000 for the light and foghorns. Although the facility is still an active U.S. Coast Guard station, the equipment is monitored and operated remotely and no keepers are present. Regular tours on Saturdays and Sundays will resume in May. (Steve Mullensky/for Peninsula Daily News)
