To kick off this special "know it!” we also are sponsoring a photo contest until Aug. 15. Here's your chance to show off your favorite vacation destination or your family vacation photos and become eligible for prizes. All you have to do is submit a clear photo of your trip, whether it's a landscape shot or a humorous one of your family on vacation. All submissions will be on NewsOK.com, where viewers will vote on their favorites. The top photos chosen as semifinalists will win the entrant an award certificate and a small gift. The final three winners will be announced Labor Day weekend and receive $200 for first place, $100 for second, and $50 for third.
All of this can be yours by going to www.newsok. com/vacations.
