to each category, and degree of difficulty.
“I always look forward to reviewing the submissions each year with the magazine and our team of judges,” said Dan Doar, City of Edina Graphic Designer and event co-organizer. “It’s so
hard to choose winners from each category because we get so many spectacular photos.”
