Thank-you to everyone who entered and voted in this competition. Next year we look forward to a bigger and better competition, thanks to all the support this competition has received and the lessons learnt this time around. The public participation in this competition has made it unique, and ALL the entries received displayed a deep appreciation of our national parks, and a great flair for language! In total just under 400 votes were cast. The stories were viewed in total more than 1000 times.
SANParks launched this competition as a way to rediscover our parks through words....we hope that by participating in this competition in some way, you will have done the same!
