Morgan Community College (MCC) congratulates Holly Haman-Marcum of Burlington Colorado for submitting the winning image for the college’s annual calendar photo contest.
MCC calendars featuring local photos were first published by the college in 1995. The 2025 Calendar winning photograph, “After the Storm”, depicts an image captured northeast of Burlington Colorado, in Kit Carson County, where a fierce storm devastated most corn crops. The photo will be featured on the 2025 MCC calendar and will be available for free at all MCC campus locations and the MCC Foundation office, 300 Main Street, Fort Morgan, beginning January 2025.
“Even in the face of destruction, the beauty of the landscape and the steadfastness of local industry stand as a powerful testament to the resilience of our community,” stated Holly Haman-Marcum.
“More than just a competition, this photo contest tradition fosters a deeper connection to northeast Colorado communities and people,” stated MCC Communications, Marketing, and Recruitment Director Ariella Gonzales-Vondy. “The local photographers, through their lens, help reveal the quiet, awe-inspiring moments that are often overlooked, and they invite others to see the beauty in the everyday scenes of rural Colorado.”
A collage of the photos submitted for the 2025 calendar contest can be viewed at www.morgancc.edu/calendar-contest and on MCC’s Facebook and Instagram pages. For information about future contests, email Ariella Gonzales-Vondy at [email protected].
