Contest announcement post - 30HBD in prizes

The contest will be in the The outdoors & more community which focuses on the outdoors, hiking, camping, survival, four wheel drive, military, preparedness, shooting and firearms and all of the elements around it.

  • Present your post well, in-focus images and great text

The prizes - 30HBD

I'll be selecting the winners and my decision will be final of course. The three sponsors of the prizes are @meesterboom, @tarazkp and me, @galenkp and I'll be distributing the HBD between the winning posts. I will also being curating on the really good ones.

The winners will be announced in a post soon after the contest deadline and the HBD transfer will happen subsequently.

Remember, this is a contest, so take your time and bring your best effort to maximise your chance of success.
