AKRON, Ohio, June 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- For many western Pennsylvanians, summer is the season of backyard barbeques, reading on the patio, and relaxing on the deck under the stars.  Penn Power is inviting its customers to show off these outdoor living spaces for a chance to win prizes in the company's inaugural "Summer of Cool" Photo Contest.  

Submit a photo of your personal retreat – whether it's a tiny balcony or a spacious backyard – through the Penn Power Facebook page (www.facebook.com/PennPower) until July 10.  Up to 10 finalists will be selected by Penn Power based on criteria such as overall design, decor, outdoor lighting and appeal.  Finalists' photos will be posted on Facebook for public voting from July 11 until July 21.

The grand prize winner will receive a $200 Visa® gift card and two light bulbs containing Bluetooth speakers. The first prize winner will receive a $100 gift card.
