Spirit of UBIQUE Contest (formerly Regimental Photo Contest)

The RCA recognizes the diversity of talents and abilities amongst our members and we are looking to showcase all of it.

Show us your Gunner Spirit in whatever way you enjoy!

Introduction

The updated contest is designed to promote creativity, inclusivity and encourage a broader participation base to capture Artillery spirit. Funds are allocated annually towards prizes for the Spirit of Ubique Contest.  Submissions can be:

  • Photos;
  • Videos;
  • Songs;
  • Poems; and
  • Hand Crafted Objects of any material (wood, metal, clay, wool).

The current funding allocation is $100/quarterly/winner.

ALL ENTRIES MUST REFLECT THE ARTILLERY AND DEMONSTRATE CREATIVITY AND THE SPIRIT BEHIND OUR GUNNERS.

Procedures

The contest is held four times per fiscal year with the winner receiving $100 and photo of the submission published on the website. All submissions entered in the contest become the property of RHQ RCA and may be published in Regimental publications and on the website.
