Announcing the Winners of the 2019 Photo Contest!

We received about 200 entries from visitors all around the country. Friends of San Lucas staff completed two rounds of voting to determine the winners. Thank you to all of the talented participants who took the time to share their beautiful shots with us.

The First Prize Photo (featured), entitled “Giggles,” was taken by Dan Rietz of Eagan, Minnesota. Dan wins one pound of Juan Ana coffee per month for a year and a Friends of San Lucas mug and sweatshirt. (And bragging rights, of course!) Congratulations, Dan!

Congratulations to Steve Herder of Herder Photography who wins second prize for this memorable photo taken in Nueva Providencia. Steve will receive a pound of Juan Ana coffee, a Friends of San Lucas mug and a t-shirt. Steve visited San Lucas with Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Church in Mound, Minnesota. Congratulations, Steve!
