Congratulations to the 2025 Shorewood Community Photo Contest Winners! 

At the February 10 City Council meeting, the winners of the 2025 Shorewood Community Photo Contest were announced. For 8 years, the City of Shorewood has hosted an annual community photo contest. The goal of the contest is to inspire individuals to explore and highlight the City of Shorewood through their creativity and talent. Everyone is encouraged to participate, including residents of all ages and businesses. The 2025 photo contest deadline was December 31, 2025. Photos were judged anonymously by Shorewood staff and were evaluated based on creativity, composition, and expression of the category. The winning photo in each category is posted below. Winners receive a framed print of their photo(s), and all submissions are used in the City's marketing and communications materials.
