Photos of Collingswood Needed for #ILoveClassicTowns Photo Contest

Collingswood is one of 20 towns invited to participate in the Delaware Valley Planning Commission's #ILoveClassicTowns photo contest.

Collingswood residents already know the unique sights that sets the borough apart from the rest of the towns in the Greater Philadelphia suburbs. A new photo contest wants to help the rest of the region discover why Collingswood is a special place to live, work and visit.

The Delaware Valley Planning Commission is accepting submissions through April 5 for its #ILoveClassicTowns contest, celebrating the 20 municipalities recognized by the commission as a classic town in the Philadelphia region.
