It’s Wednesday and that means it’s time for another 365 Barrington photo contest. We have a new winner from last week’s mystery photo which we’ll reveal in just a minute. But first, we want YOUR PHOTOS to take the spotlight this week. So we’re featuring a “Cute Kid & Baby Photo Contest” here at 365Barrington.com where YOU submit your favorite kid and baby photos and we’ll open it up for a vote. HERE’S THE BEST PART… Your photos are eligible even if your baby’s not a baby anymore. He or she can be age 20, 30, 40 or, you get the idea, and your picture could still take the prize. OR…if you have a great photo of yourself or your spouse as a child, go ahead and submit it. We want to have fun with this one so ANYTHING GOES! I’m going to start things off by sharing one of my baby favorites.
The Ice House Mall inspired our contest this week and is generously offering the grand prize for our “Cute Kid & Baby Photo Contest” winner…

The 365 Barrington “Cute Kid & Baby Photo Contest” will work just like the “Barrington Blizzard Snow Day Photo Contest” we hosted last month. All you have to do is submit your photos using the form below. Photos will be identified by your name and a caption in this contest. You’re welcome to submit as many photos as you’d like between now and midnight this Friday and you must have the right to share your photos. You don’t have to share your model’s name unless you want to, we’ll start the voting on Saturday and we’ll reveal the winner next Wednesday!
Now to last week’s mystery photo featured on “Guess Where Wednesday”. My 2-year-old daughter just drew the winner’s name and managed to sit still while I took this picture. Our new winner is…
Barrington photographer, Anthony Tortoriello, took last week’s mystery photo. We cropped his picture to make it a mystery and you’ll find that photo and all of our submissions by clicking HERE. All of our guessers were right! It’s a picture of the neon sign outside Boloney’s Sandwich Shop in Barrington, THE PLACE to get one of THE BEST sandwiches on THE PLANET! Congratulations, Heather, and thanks for your guess. I’ll email you this week with details about how to receive your two free tickets to enjoy a movie at the Catlow Theater next time you drop by for a sandwich at Boloney’s. Here is a more revealing look at Anthony’s image and I can’t wait to see your Cute Kid & Baby Photos this week!
