Tourism Saskatchewan's annual ExploreSask Photo Contest is officially underway and accepting entries as of June 15. Enter photographs of your favorite Saskatchewan adventures for a chance to win great prizes.

There will also be up to five honourable mention prizes in each category. In addition, category winners and a selection of other entries that showcase our beautiful provincial parks will be displayed in the Legislative Building.
