Hi Play-Well Families,

After our successful photo contest last summer, The Brick Stanley Project, we have decided to do a new summer photo contest this year.  For this contest, we are asking our families to take a picture of the words PLAY WELL, spelled out in a creative, unique, slightly ridiculous way.  We see “Play Well” as not only our name, but also our philosophy on how our organization works.  When our engineering students are playing well in class, they are solving problems, exploring the world, and learning about themselves through play.  When our staff is playing well, they are having more fun than they have had at any other job.  So, we wanted to spread the message of playing well and here is how we are going to do it:

Here are some examples of photos already submitted:

Carter & Rogan Schmidbauer, Phoenix, AZ

Brandon Jones, Kirkland, WA

Santa Barbara, CA

Lester Mendaros, Pleasanton, CA

Ben Pfister, Ventura, CA

When you have taken your photo, you can submit it in the following ways:

• Post it on our Play-Well Facebook Page
• Tweet it to twitter.com/Play-Well_TEK
• Email it to jeff@play-well.org

Check out our current submissions here: http://bit.ly/2013PlayWellSummerPhotoContestEntries

You can even submit more than one photo if you’d like.  We will gather all the photos from the contest and in August, we will  have our Play-Well Families vote for their favorite photo.  The top three winners could win a Engineering with LEGO® Birthday Party, a LEGO® Technic Set, or  LEGO® Bow Tie.  All photos will be included in our upcoming video, so everyone wins.  Voting ends at 11:59 PM on Labor Day, September 2nd.  We hope you enter the contest.  If you have any questions, email Jeff at jeff@play-well.org.

PLAY WELL THIS SUMMER!
