Share your fun summer photos

Hey kids, we want to know what you’re planning for your summer vacation. We’ll even give you a little camera to illustrate it.

Just send us a short essay — 200 words or less — on why you want to be a part of the project. We’ll give disposable cameras to our favorite entries.

Then you go have fun and return your cameras in August for a story that will run in the newspaper and online at the end of summer.

Send your essays by June 28 to Summer Vacation, Features Department, Las Vegas Review-Journal, P.O. Box 70, Las Vegas, NV 89125. Include your name, age and a daytime phone number.
