Congratulations to our 2025 Proudly PNW Photo Contest Winners!

Thank you everyone who participated in our Proudly PNW photo contest! Nearly 1,000 entries were submitted during the contest that ran from July 11 to August 29, 2025.

First Fed is delighted to showcase local talent and the beauty of the Pacific Northwest. These winning photos may also be featured in local publications, on social media, and in our calendars—back this year by popular demand! Our 2026 calendars will be available for free at all First Fed branches starting in late November, while supplies last.
