Explore a wetland wonder and win

You have about two more weeks to enter the Explore MI Wetland Wonders Challenge contest by visiting one of Michigan’s Wetland Wonders.

Contest entries must be received by July 16.

Scattered across the state, from Sturgeon River Sloughs State Wildlife Management Area in the Upper Peninsula to Pointe Mouillee State Game Area just 25 miles from the Ohio border, Michigan’s Wetland Wonders provide year-round recreation opportunities like birding, boating, fishing, hiking, photography and hunting.

Document your trip to a Wetland Wonder with a selfie and you could win a $1,000 gift card for outdoor gear! The more Wetland Wonders you visit, the more contest entries you get. Can you visit all 15?

The Explore MI Wetland Wonders Challenge contest is sponsored by Consumer’s Energy with contest partners MI Birds and Michigan United Conservation Clubs.

Four lucky winners will be randomly drawn July 23. The winners will receive Cabela’s gift cards in varying amounts. The grand prize winner will take home $1,000, the second prize winner $750, the third prize winner $500 and the fourth prize winner $250.

To enter the prize drawing, take a selfie by a sign with the name of the state game or wildlife area at one of Michigan’s Wetland Wonders locations. Email your photo, along with your name, email address, phone number and mailing address, to DNR-WetlandWonders@Michigan.gov.

Michigan’s Wetland Wonders, located across the state, are managed to provide high-quality wetlands for waterfowl and water birds while providing outdoor recreation opportunities. These areas are funded by hunting license fees, but they are open for anyone to visit, use and enjoy most of the year.

Visit Michigan.gov/WetlandWonders for full contest rules, locations and for more information about Michigan’s awesome Wetland Wonders!
