Winning photos were announced during the International Boating and Water Safety Summit agency meeting on 5 March 2012. In the near future, high resolution photos will be posted in the CorpsLakes Photo Album at this link: https://corpslakes.erdc.dren.mil/employees/watersafety/photos.cfm. Winners and runner-ups will also receive personalized recognition awards presented by the National Operations Center for Water Safety.

Please note that there will not be a 2012 water safety photo contest; this decision was made to allow time for a new program manager to be selected following current manager Lynda Nutt's retirement on 31 March 2012. For further information, contact your Division Representative on the National Water Safety PDT.

Thank You

Steve Austin, Natural Resources Manager
