Newport Memory Derby results: win, place & show

“What’s a Newport memory look like, sound like?” That was the question we posed in the First Annual Newport Memory Derby— an open invitation for people to share their stories, images, movies, and tattoos about Newport. (Not really on the tattoos, but wouldn’t that be cool? Next year, people.)

Newport’s blend of coastal must-do’s and go-see’s makes it hard not to leave with a memory or two. For Newport’s Memory Derby contest, we asked people to submit what stayed with them— the stories, pictures, videos that captured Newport’s charm. The lure of winning some fabulous prizes probably helped.

Check out the website and this year’s winners— from Wyoming, Colorado and Hillsboro— and poke around the other photos and stories. Together, they are Newport at its finest.
