2023 Winners

Thanks to everyone who participated in the second annual #bestofwilsonville photo contest. With nearly 400 submissions, you made life tough on our panel of judges once again this year.

Our distinguished panel of seven has completed its work. Each judge submitted their top five selections in each of nine categories (the 10th didn't fill). Points were awarded (5-4-3-2-1) from each judge. The photo with the top cumulative score in each category was deemed the 'best of category' winner. From among the nine category winners, judges selected their top three (3-2-1 points awarded); two photos tied in the voting for 'best overall', so we'll go ahead and declare TWO grand prize winners - Jay Slupesky and Amanda Harmon!

Congrats to Jay, to Amanda, and to our other category winners! We will be in touch soon about prizes. Our Grand Prize Winners receive a $100 gift card to Wilsonville retailer of their choice. The prize for the category winners was unspecified, but I think we've cooked up a pretty good solution. More soon.

To all that participated, thanks! We look forward to showcasing your photos in the City's Annual Report, our Annual Comprehensive Financial Report, and other places where we may have the opportunity to show off the beauty that exists everywhere in Wilsonville.

We'll see you next year! Thanks again for sharing so many wonderful photos.
