Shehaqua 2012 Video Contest

Have Fun, Help Us Advertise Camp, and Win Cash!

We are glad to announce the second Shehaqua Video Contest with exciting cash prizes! Why are we doing another contest? We believe that videos are a great way to spread the word about Shehaqua Family Camp. We will choose the contest winners by popular vote online on our Facebook page, which is a good way to draw many people’s attention to our website and our programs. So please participate in the contest and help us create a big buzz!

Create a Video as a Family Fun Activity

We offer two categories this year, one for families and one for individuals. We hope that many families will take this opportunity to work on a fun video and create a memorable experience at the same time. Why not get started over the Thanksgiving Holidays?

If you have young kids in your family, record them talking about their Shehaqua memories, and your video is almost done. This will be fun, and in a few years serve as a precious family snapshot.

All videos must be submitted by January 31, 2012.

Theme of the Videos

To participate in either category (family or individual) choose one of these three topics:

  • What I Like About Shehaqua Family Camp
  • Shehaqua Family Camp in 2025
  • 5 Reasons Why YOU Should Go to Shehaqua Family Camp

Variations on these suggested topics are okay, too. You can even create something entirely different. What we are looking for is an original video advertising Shehaqua Family Camp that will excite viewers and get them to come to camp in summer. Please read the rules for more details.

Prizes, and Choosing the Winners

The winners of each category will get a check of $100. The second and third place winners in each category will get a check of $50 each. All videos will be posted on our Facebook page in February. There will be a 2-week period for people to vote for their favorite video. The video that gets the most “Likes” wins. (Yes, it’s okay to mobilize all your relatives and friends to vote for your video.) For people without a Facebook account: If you are on our mailing list we will send you an email and provide a way for you to vote, as well. View the full rules on our website.

New This Year

If you have an idea for a video and need someone with a camera to shoot it, you can request a 30-minute video recording session at Camp Innabah. We will videotape your act and give you the raw footage for editing and finishing the video. Please let us know BEFORE the start of the Winter Retreat at Camp Innabah if you are interested.

Upon request we will give or mail you a DVD with 10 minutes of general video footage from Shehaqua Family Camp which you can use as part of your own video creation.
