Viewpoint School in Calabasas, Calif., was chosen as one of the monthly winners of Walsworth’s Big Event promotion back in February, which won the yearbook staff a prize pack full of marketing materials to be used for a yearbook signing party, including T-shirts, buttons, backstage passes, lanyards and more.
The staff recently held its Big Event signing party and had a great time, so they sent in some pictures to the Yearbooks Blog, which you can see in the gallery below.
The Grand Prize winners of Walsworth’s Big Event promotion, Americas High School in El Paso, Texas, held its yearbook distribution signing party on Wednesday afternoon.
Using the prize money they received from Walsworth, the Americas yearbook staff set up a photo booth, brought in food and drinks, hired a student DJ, raffled off an iPod Nano and inserted six Golden Ticket prizes in student yearbooks.
Has your yearbook staff ever considered organizing a photo contest? If not, it could be time to give the idea a try.
A photo contest is a great way to get students interested in, and actively involved with, the yearbook by submitting photos for consideration to be used in the book. A contest can even be structured so that the winner gets a free yearbook.
Great photography can go a long way toward making a great yearbook.
