*THE 10TH ANNUAL*

*ACE NEW ENGLAND PHOTO CONTEST*

*At The Great Nor’Easter*

*February 22, 2025*

ACE members love to take photos of roller coasters while visiting amusement
parks. Now is the chance to submit your favorites to share in a photo
contest, *open to all ACE members who attend the event*!

*Contest Rules:*

ACE members attending the event may submit up to three photos for the
contest. Photos should be no smaller than 8 by 10, or larger than 11 by 14
inches, and be without borders. Each photo must be roller coaster related,
must show an existing or defunct roller coaster, and must have been taken
by the entrant. *No on-ride photos will be accepted.*

Each photo needs to be identified on the back with the name of the person
entering, their ACE membership number, the name of the coaster and the park
where the coaster is located.

Those wishing to submit photos must arrive by *10:30 a.m.* to allow the
photos to be registered and displayed. *NO photos will be accepted
after 10:45 a.m.*

The photos will be on display during the event. One ballot will be issued
to each attendee upon arrival, who will vote for their 3 favorite photos.
Each photo with a first place vote will earn 3 points; each second place
vote will earn two points; each third place vote will earn one point. Only
one vote per photo will be permitted, or the entire ballot will be
invalidated.

Prizes will be awarded by popular ballots for 1st, 2nd and 3rd favorite
photos. Ballots will be distributed at event check-in.

Winning photos, with the permission of the photographers, will be kept and
automatically entered in the ACE Coaster Con 47 photo contest, being held
in June. Remaining photos will be returned at the end of the event.

Event details are being finalized and registration will open soon.

Hope to see you there!

*If you do not use Facebook, congratulations. You need not read any
further.*

Users of Facebook, and followers of our ACE New England page, read on.

Back in October, our ACE New England page was hacked. We were under the
impression that it was ‘gone’, but have just discovered that it not only
still exists, but that the hacker has ‘taken it over’. They have every
single post/like/event/follow (and followers) from the old page. It is
very likely that you are unaware that the hacker has your name. There is
also the possibility that the ACE New England page you were following is
not the current, and *legitimate*, ACE New England page.

If you have Facebook, go to www.facebook.com/viralmechanicpost
[it will look like the screen shot below]

What you need to do (in the order below):

1) Report the above page to Facebook

2) Unfollow the page (you may not know you’re following it, so check.)

3) Block the page (which will remove your access to the *bogus* ACE New
England page)

4) Search for our new page, ACE New England and ‘like’ and ‘follow’

Javan, could you please forward this email to all the regional reps? Many
of them share their FB posts to our page, and they may be sharing to the
‘bogus’ page.

THANK YOU!

See you in the queue,
