What do you like best about living in Camden?
03/01/2009
Yes, it's a basic question and we all have our reasons for why we like living here - but the Camden Community News wants to know your perspective. Is it amenities like the parks, arts, events (like Holiday on 44th, Spring Art Party, etc), neighborhood organizations, churches, schools, businesses, services, transit/commute, your neighbors, your house, diversity?
The Camden Community News wants to hear from you! And as an incentive, a few Camden businesses are offering prizes. So here's the contest rules: Write your article about what you like best about living in Camden, and keep it at about 500 words or less. Deadline for submissions is Monday, March 16. Send to editor@camdenews.org or Camden News, 3526 Humboldt Ave. N, Minneapolis, MN 55412. You may send more than one submission. Contest is open to all Camden residents, business/property owners - and youth! Include your name, address, phone and email. Essays will be judged by the Camden News Editor based on creativity, original concept and composition, and winners will be chosen by the Camden News Board of Directors.
