PHOTO CONTEST: St. Patrick's Day/Irish Pride

It's one of the best times of the year for those with Irish heritage.

In our photo contest this week, we want to see photos that illustrate St. Patrick's Day or Irish pride. Did you go to a St. Paddy's Day parade? Decorating your house with green this week, or planning a delicious corned beef dinner? Have a great green outfit? Upload away.

We’ll take submissions until 5 p.m. March 18. The winner, chosen by Patch editors, will be announced on March 19. The prize? A $25 gift card.

We know it can be hard to choose just one, so you may enter as many photos as you'd like. If you like a particular photo, voice your support for it in the comments.

Eligibility is limited to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are 18 and older.

To upload your photo, just sign in to Patch, click the "Upload Photos and Videos" button on this article, choose a photo you'd like to submit, add a caption, and save.

For full rules, see the PDF attached to this article. 

We can't wait to see your photos!
