Snapz! Vacation or staycation?

The October Snapz! pages will feature your pictures from summer vacations and staycations. The economy was tight. Gasoline prices went through the roof. But creative folks in the Mahoning Valley found ways to enjoy themselves anyway.

What did you and your family do for fun?

Did you go to the beach? To the lake? Did you explore trails in Mill Creek Park? Maybe you took in the art at The Butler, or a ball game with the Scrappers.

Send us your Snapz!

We want to show your friends and neighbors what you've been up to this summer.

The best way to get your photos to us is by e-mail. We need large jpeg images so we can reproduce them in print. Send them as attachments to features@vindy.com. (Please don't send links to the various photo services. We need the file, itself.)

Or, next best, you can mail us your photos to Snapz! The Vindicator, P.O. Box 780, Youngstown, OH 44501.

Either way, feel free to join in. We've already received shots of all kinds of activities, but we're certain other people have great shots, too.
