Troxel LLC is now accepting submissions for its new "Safety in Focus" online photo contest. Judges will award prizes, including a grand prize of $250 worth of Troxel merchandise, to five winning photos and showcase all the best entries online.

The contest is in support of Troxel's newly upgraded Safety Center Web site, a comprehensive and up-to-date collection of equestrian helmet safety information. Featuring videos, tips from the pros, and interactive games for kids, the site is designed to engage equestrian riders, promote safe helmet practices, and ultimately reduce the occurrence and severity of head injuries.

"The 'Safety in Focus' contest is a fun way to get the equestrian community thinking about head protection," said Shay Timms, CEO of Troxel.

The contest runs until Dec. 9, 2009. Winners will be chosen by Dec.16, 2009. Contest details
