In the summer of 2024, the Champaign County Forest Preserves hosted a photo contest to highlight the natural beauty of the preserves. Participants submitted stunning images capturing landscapes, close-ups of plants, insects, birds, and wildlife, as well as breathtaking seasonal scenes and vibrant moments of outdoor recreation. A peer voting process selected the top 20 photographs, which were then shared on Facebook to determine the final 14 images featured in the 2025 Champaign County Forest Preserves calendar. The entries for this contest are displayed here.Additional entries from this year’s contest can be seen at the Museum of the Grand Prairie at Lake of the Woods in Mahomet, IL.
