The first person to reply with the correct answer will win a $20 gift card from Amazon.com. Please send your answers to contest@stc-chicago.org and check our website for news of a winner. Good luck!
Contestants are eligible to win only one prize within any one 12-month period. We will notify the winner via email. Additional information about the photo will be posted on our blog. |
