Travel World, our local travel agency in Invermere, has generously donated a night at a Calgary hotel and two tickets to a Calgary Flames game to the winner of our annual Pioneer Travel Photo Contest.

Simply take a copy of The Pioneer with you when you are away on holidays, take a photo and send us a copy to have it published in The Pioneer. At the end of the year, we will draw the winning name. Submit your photos online at www.columbiavalleypioneer.com, email them to [email protected], or drop by our office, #8, 1008-8th Ave. Invermere.
