PUBLIC INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN RIVERTON PHOTO CONTEST
Riverton City has launched the “Best of Riverton Photo Contest” with the goal of having residents capture, in photo, the very best the city has to offer. The contest, which runs through August 3, is divided into three categories: live, work/service and play. Photos from the contest will be used to tell Riverton’s story in the city’s future marketing and communications efforts.

The contest winner will receive a $300 cash award, and category winners will each receive a $100 award.
