'Little Fan' Contest Closed: Thanks for Your Entries!

Is your little one a Little Fan with big team spirit?

You know: The daughter who loves to get decked out in Cleveland Browns colors. Or the son who's the rowdiest spectator at the high school game. 

We're inviting you to share your children's (ages 12 and under) best display of team spirit on Patch!

Show off your kids in their baddest team logo clothes or their most colorful game-day face paint. Is your child's bedroom decorated entirely in team colors? Or maybe you have a great game photo of your kids cheering on the home team.

The team, sport or professional/amateur status doesn't matter: It could be the Cavs, the football squad or the Avon Eagles girls' golf team. All we want to see is your child's love for sports expressed in a fun, cute or spectacular way.

There are prizes, too! A panel of judges for each Patch web site will choose one photo from each site as the Little Fan who shows the most team spirit. Each of these local winners will receive a $50 gift certificate from restaurant, 18515 Detroit Ave., Lakewood.

All Patch Little Fan local winners then will compete for the Grand Prize: a weekend getaway for four at Great Wolf Lodge in Sandusky!

To enter: Upload your photos at Strongsville Patch. 

This is important: After you upload, a window will pop up that gives you three options: do not click "Done Uploading." Instead, click "Edit Your Photos" and add your caption with the following information:

• the name, age and hometown of your Little Fan;
• what's in the photo;
• who took the photo;
• where and when the photo was taken. 

If you click "Done Uploading" you will not be able to edit your caption later.

To begin, click the green button that says "Submit Your Photos."

Your submitted photo will be posted online alongside others submitted by Patch readers.

You can upload your photos from now until midnight, Friday, Nov. 11. Local winners will be announced on each Patch site on Tuesday, Nov. 15. The Grand Prize winner will be announced on each Patch site on Friday, Nov. 18.

Judging the contest for Strongsville Patch will be Editor Debbie Palmer, contributor and David Liam Kyle, award-winning photographer for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
