Make your friends green with envy …

Our new photo contest has begun! This month we want to see how you celebrate St. Paddy’s Day. Whether it’s sitting front and center at the parade, or riding on a float, sitting at the bar or riding in a Paddy Wagon, we want to see! Green beer. Shamrocks. Pots of gold and leprechauns. See it. Celebrate it. Shoot it and send it in.

Your pot of gold could come in the form of a fabulous cup of coffee, courtesy of a cool new coffee shop, because we have some fun new twists for this contest! Chairs Coffee , a new Spokane coffee spot, is partnering with us. They’ll be looking over all the contributions and will choose two favorite photos every week, instead of monthly, and they’ll give each winner a free coffee drink. Even better, all month long the winning photos will be printed out and displayed at Chairs Coffee for all to see!

The deadline to submit is Thursday, March 24, but don’t wait until the last minute … you have multiple chances to win! Pics can be submitted here , or emailed to joebu@spokesman.com

Check out Chairs Coffee at 113 W. Indiana. The shop features signature coffee drinks, hot soups, fresh sandwiches and goodies from Cake.
