52 Week Tour of South Jersey
"Where am I?" Contest - December 2009 - Present
The 52 week tour of South Jersey began in December of 2009, but it didn't start out as a 52 week tour! In an effort to bring a positive influence to our region, I wanted to remind South Jerseyans of some of the good things in our part of the state. That's how the "Where am I?" Contest was born.
To my surprise, I found that the contest is something that people look forward to every week, so I've decided to extend the contest to a full year. We have a lot more discovering to do! I hope you will join me and follow the contest every week. Below, I have listed all of the locations to date. I hope you enjoy the photos and they inspire you to visit or re-visit some of the sites with your families.
Get out and enjoy South Jersey - and feel free to email me a photo - maybe I will use your photo one week.
I would also like to thank the sponsors who have generously provided prizes for the winners: Comcast SportsNet, South Jersey Online Bookstore, Bill Booz Photography, Framestyles by Arlene, Social Signatures, Steven Winkelstein (author), The Riversharks, Rapid Refill, Karl Kinkler (Budd Realty), Sign-A-Rama Somerdale, Chocolate Pretzel Heaven, Mike Medina (computer services), Absolute Haven Spa, Dinners Your Way, 30 Strikes Bowling Center, and Tom Collins (Smart Mortgage).
