Montrose Travel welcomed in the new year by asking everyone to consider the following question: Where will you ‘Say Cheese!’ this year?

From Alaska to the South Pacific, Montrose Travel is encouraging people to dust off their camera, pack their bags, and take that vacation they have been dreaming about. Whether it’s with friends, family or a combination of both, what destination will put a cheesy smile on your face this year?

Inspired by their own employees’ cheesy vacation photos, Montrose Travel is hosting a Facebook contest where the grand prize winner will receive $500 off their next vacation. Through Jan. 27, contestants will be able to submit their best ‘Say Cheese!” vacation photo and entered for a chance to win. A panel of five Montrose Travel employees will select 10 finalists and the contest will open for public voting on Jan. 31 to choose the winner.

The Facebook contest grand prize winner will receive $500 off their next vacation, the second place winner will receive $200 off their next vacation, and the third place winner will receive $100 off their next vacation. The winners will be announced on Feb. 11.

To give contestants inspiration and ideas, Montrose Travel has created a Family Photo Album on their Facebook page at www.facebook.com/MontroseTravel. The Montrose Travel family has submitted vacation photos from their travel adventures and encourages people to get to know the personal vacation planners working to make each vacation as special as possible.
