Thank You! From the Friends of Mason Neck State Park.

Coca Cola is still verifying the results but our park finished solidly in second place--thanks to everyone who voted.

Here's a chance to pay back Marian, one of the Gang of Six ladies who are mainly responsible for MNSP winning $50,000--she has a photo entered in a National Wildlife Foundation contest--great shot of a Grizzly in Alaska, standing in a stream and eyeing the salmon who are jumping toward him. And it's not like the Coke contest with hundreds of thousands of votes--she has 107 right now, which puts her in 4th place for this week, which is enough to advance to the finals--AND THIS IS THE LAST WEEK BEFORE THE FINALS. You can vote daily through the 28th.

Easy to vote via Facebook at this link  http://www.nwf.org/PhotoContest/ViewPhoto.aspx?imageid=405483
PS: You don't have to use Facebook--you can register at the site and vote.
