CONTEST: Tell Us Why You Have the Best Mom in University Place

Don't just settle for all the customary ways to celebrate how awesome your mom is. Instead, upload a photograph of her to this article and write a caption telling us why your mom is the best in University Place!

On May 11 at noon, we'll pick a winner and call her the "Best Mom of University Place."

The contest rules are attached.
