Citizens of Port Colborne, beware! The city is trying its best to frame you.
Fortunately, residents can be assured the police won’t be involved.
As part of their #PortColborneStaycation promotion, Port Colborne is setting up oversized picture frames throughout the city at nine different locations.
For the month of August, contestants need only to get a photo of themselves and then post it on your Facebook, Twitter or Instagram accounts with the hashtag #PortColborneStaycation to be entered into the contest.
“This is the year for road trips, backyard adventures and summer staycations. With beautiful beaches, a vibrant waterfront community with boutiques, restaurants, and cafes, multiple hiking trails and parks for nature enthusiasts, exploration is endless in Port Colborne,” said the city in a release.
“This South Niagara coastal community is your perfect destination for a weekend getaway, daytrip, or even just a random sunny Sunday cruise.”
