The Winner Of Our "Favorite Fall Scene From Granby and East Granby" Contest Is...

The Granbys Patch is proud to announce the winner of our local photo contest, "Your Favorite Fall Scene From Granby and East Granby," has been decided.

Contest winner Diane Mucha submitted the photo of the bucolic scene of East Granby that accompanies this article. .

Diane won a prize package valued at more than $100, including a Patch t-shirt, tote bag and water bottle, along with Patch stickers and pens and the opportunity to appear in "Junk Food," the weekly cartoon created by local artist-writer duo Matt Ryan and Steve Kanaras of Free Lunch Studios.

The contest allowed Patch users to enter any local fall scene they wanted, resulting in a variety of images with a focus on the pastoral nature of Granby and East Granby in the fall. Thanks to Peter Dinella, Maggie Percival, Elicia R., Dot Muszynski, Amy Geigner and Sandy for submitting their entries into the contest.

Each Patch user who submitted one or more photos for the contest was assigned a number and the winner was drawn at random by using a number generator: We would have had too tough of a time selecting a winner from all the great pictures submitted by readers of The Granbys Patch.

We excluded Halloween costumes from our contest because Patch's national Best Halloween Costume In America Contest is covering that territory and is still happening. .
