Tomorrow, Friday August 12, we’re naming the Winner of The Rockaway Times Photo Contest. We’ve invited all photographers who earned a spot in the Top 30. They’ll be able to take home the enlarged photo that was on display in the boardwalk since Memorial Day (and maybe get a Rockaway Times t-shirt). The winner will receive $500 as the Grand Prize and earn bragging rights for at least a year. The public is invited to the final ceremony, too. The Rockaway Times office, 114-04 Beach Channel Drive at 5 p.m. on Friday.
