Snap To It!

At this past Saturday night’s Athletics Ontario Awards Banquet and Hall of Fame induction ceremony, our photographers from Kalidescope Creations took some incredible shots and were also able to photograph a number of touching and more personal behind-the-scenes moments.

 

This picture of Andre De Grasse and Jelani Ellison of the Brampton Bullets is one of our favourite photos taken at the gala.  Eight year old Jelani is the 100m record holder for boys 8 and under here in Ontario. Jelani’s personal best is 14.82 — and we all know that Andre’s is 9.92 — but it looks like these boys opted to bond over technology before actually sitting down and comparing times or stats.

 

That got us thinking here at the AO office.  We’d really love to see some of YOUR photos from Saturday night’s celebration!  We figure if David Letterman can have such monumental success with his Top Ten, we can too!  So, if you attended the Athletics Ontario gala this past Saturday and you have a favourite picture to share, please feel free to send that snap to us.  It’s easy to do, just forward it to our Media Relations Specialist, Sarah Miller, at [email protected]

 

With plenty of help from fellow AO staff members, Sarah will select the Top Ten photos from the variety of pictures you email directly to her. AO will then post the Top Ten shots (as submitted by you) on our home page.  Please be sure to include details on who the photographer was and the names of each athlete within your photograph. Deadline for entry is Friday, October 9, 2015 at 5:00pm.  Photos will be shared the week of Monday, October 12th.

 

We’re excited to see your gala pics in the days ahead!
