RaysWeather.Com has sponsored a photo contest and calendar featuring photography from northwest North Carolina for the past nine years. For the 2012 calendar, the photo contest will solicit entries spanning the entire length of the Blue Ridge Parkway, from Waynesboro, Virginia, to Cherokee, North Carolina. Depending on the number of calendars sold, 44% to 70% of net calendar proceeds will be donated to the Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation.  According to Dr. Ray Russell, President of RaysWeather.com, “We are excited about our new partnership with The Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation. The 2012 Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation Calendar will not only be full of beautiful Parkway scenery and weather data, but it will also help support the Foundation’s efforts in providing funding for critical projects along The Blue Ridge Parkway. RaysWeather.com is very proud to be part of this vision and mission.”
According to Ray, “We’re looking for the best, most unique photos capturing the beauty, activities, and essence of the Blue Ridge Parkway in all seasons of the year.” Twenty-five photos from each of the four seasons will be selected as finalists and will be voted on by RaysWeather.Com readers. . “We are so happy to be partnering with RaysWeather.Com to offer what is sure to be a must-have calendar for 2012. The photos that are already pouring in are so wonderful, we can’t wait to see the winners,” said Carolyn Ward, CEO of the Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation.
