Enter our fun rain photo contest now!

Vehicles plowed through water along U.S. Highway 17 Saturday morning in Charleston.

[CONTEST CLOSED.  To see winners, click here]

Not much to do with all of the rain soaking the Carolinas?  You can win a can of beef stew — yes, a can of beef stew — if you send us the winning snapshot in Charleston Currents’ brand new, take-advantage-of-the-storm RAIN PHOTO CONTEST.

All you have to do is snap a photo of something that you believe best illustrates the continuing rain soaking the Carolinas.  Qualifying photos will be those taken between Friday, Oct. 2, and 6 p.m., Oct. 4, 2015.  The best photos will be published in the Oct. 5 issue of Charleston Currents, your source for good news about the Lowcountry.  If you’re not a subscriber yet, our publication is free.   Sign up by clicking the subscribe button above.

Prizes

• First prize is a can of beef stew. *
• Second prize is an umbrella.*
• Third place is a case of beer.* (We’re of the school that the third prize should be the best.)

How to enter

Send your entry by email, along with your name and hometown, to editor@charlestoncurrents.com.  Please don’t send files greater than 4 Mb.   It would also be helpful if you described something about the photo — where it was taken, why you took it, what it means to you.

* Or cash equivalent.  One entry per person.  Photo submission grants permission for the photo to be published.  Entrants can be any age, but if you are under 21 and win the third prize, you’ll only get cash.  Entries due by 6 p.m. EDT, Oct. 4, 2015.
