Community organizations have set up the film festival that will be accepting entries until Jan. 27.
Cheri Holden, owner of Watershed Books, said the film could be anything from pictures of generations of a family by the lake, to animated fish jumping to birds in the county. Organizers will have a reception and announce the winners with cash awards about Jan. 30, Holden said. Winning films will also be shown at venues around the lake and will be posted on a number of Web sites.
