Rules
Each submission must be from an SFMS club Junior Member (1st thru 12th grade).
Each submission must be made by an individual, not a group effort.
Maximum of two entries per club submitted to the SFMS Youth Resources Committee (see the addresses below).
The photo must show 2024 clearly.
The photo must be at least 1200 pixels across.
If taken with a cell phone, hold the cell phone horizontally, not vertically so the year will have better resolution.
The year must be depicted using a variety of hobby-related materials such as rocks, minerals, fossils, sand, and lapidary items, but not drawings.
Each submission must have a description of the items used to build the numbers in the year. Please see the Officers Contact Lists page for the current year as an example.
