Upload Your Day-At-The-Beach Photo, Weekly Prize

Most everyone loves to go to the beach, either for a long walk with your dog in the winter or a day of swimming and playing volleyball with friends in the summer.

Massachusetts is famous for its beaches. We aren't known as the Bay State for nothing. And, for those of you who don't live on the coast, you're a short car ride away from it and there are always ponds!

If you've taken a great picture of a day-at-the-beach, share it with Patch and your neighbors.

Let us know in the caption: your first and last name, what town you're from, where the  photo was snapped, and any other information you think we should know.

Photos of beach scenes in from outside New England are OK.

Photos submitted by regional editor Margaret Carroll-Bergman, Hingham editor Tony Catinella, Milton editor Adam Roberts and fomer Falmouth editor Emily Sussman are not official entries, but are in the photo gallery to get the ball rolling.

This is part of Patch’s summer Picture of the Week series, where we’re asking you for your best pictures on a certain topic each week.

We’ve added a little incentive. The winning submission will get a $75 gift card, plus bragging rights.

We’ll be taking photo submissions each week from 9 a.m. Tuesday through noon Friday. Voting will begin at 4 a.m. Saturday and end at 9 a.m. Monday, so make sure to check back over the weekend to vote for your favorite picture.
