We’re giving away a weekend for two to Tofino’s legendary Clayoquot Oyster Festival. The package – valued at roughly $1000 and arranged with the aid of our friends at Tourism Tofino – includes two nights of luxurious accommodation at the Pacific Sands Beach Resort (Nov. 18-19), two tickets to the Mermaid’s Ball, two tickets to the Oyster Fest Gala, two tickets to the Remote Passages Oyster Farm Tour, and an Oyster Trio for two at the award-winning SOBO restaurant. (note that transportation to and from is not included, but man is the winding drive ever awesome!)

To enter the contest, you need to do a few things…

1. Express your keenness in the comments below.
2. Visit the Oyster Fest’s Facebook page and “like” it.
3. Submit two of your own photographs (only two) to Scout’s Flickr Pool. Photo 1 should be of something delicious (it doesn’t need to be an oyster). Photo 2 should involve BC’s coastline in one way or another. Both should include captions detailing the what and the where, and both need to be taken by the person entering the competition (duh).

The deadline for submissions is this Monday, November 7th at noon, so get out there and start shooting! Our crew will narrow down the entries to our favourite 5 combinations that afternoon and then post them for our Facebook fans to “like” at their leisure until noon on Friday, November 11th. The person whose images garner the most “likes” in the time allotted will be declared the winner (and will have 7 nights to pack for what will likely prove to be a weekend to remember). In the unlikely event of a tie, Scout will cast the deciding vote. All clear? GO!
