(FREEHOLD, NJ) -- Monmouth County Clerk Christine Giordano Hanlon is inviting all Monmouth County high school students to enter the County Clerk’s Annual Archives and History Day Photography Contest. The theme of this year’s contest and Archives and History Day focuses on business and industry in Monmouth County.

The submitted photographs will be archived by the Archives Division of the County Clerk’s Office for future generations to one day look back on and to see what local business and industry of Monmouth County was in 2023.

“We are excited to host our Annual Archives and History Day Photography Contest which provides high school students with the opportunity to learn about their local history while showcasing their creativity,” said Clerk Hanlon. “My hope is that this year’s contest will drive a new appreciation for Monmouth County’s rich history amongst high school students across the County.”
