SUMMIT — As part of the city of Summit’s celebration of New Jersey Local Government Week from April 12 to 18, Summit residents are invited to enter the “Summit Through Your Eyes” Photo Contest and submit images of our city that showcase its beauty, uniqueness and community spirit.

“We are all lucky to call Summit home, and this photo contest is a creative way to show off what you love about our city,” said Mayor Elizabeth Fagan. “Your entries can be photos of your favorite park or spot in Summit, a snapshot of one of our wonderful community events or even a quiet moment in your front yard that you want to share with others. I encourage residents to participate and I’m looking forward to seeing all your beautiful entries!”
After the contest ends, all eligible entries will be added to a photo album on the city of Summit Facebook page and the “Summit Through Your Eyes” landing page on the municipal website. Previous entries and winners are also available to view on the landing page.
