AT video contest solicits submissions
The Appalachian Trail Conservancy is accepting submissions for the “I am the Appalachian Trail” video contest, a nationwide search for the best video about the trail.
Contestants will submit video shorts, no longer than three minutes, emphasizing how they are connected to the trail.
The creators of the top three videos with the most votes will each win a one-year membership to the ATC and be featured in an issue of A.T. Journeys, the official magazine of the ATC. The winner will have his or her video featured in theaters during the 2014 ATC Membership Drive, shared with thousands of followers across ATC’s social media sites. The winner also will receive a hammock.
The public will vote for its favorite video through ATC’s Facebook page. Submissions are being accepted until Sept. 15, and voting will take place from Sept. 16 to Nov. 8. Winners will be announced on Nov. 11.
