A quick question for you all...

I want to enter a local photography contest that's looking for shots representing "family". I have one shot that I took at a local park one day, completely randomly. I just turned around, and there was this wonderful shot of a young child and her grandfather playing on the swings. I think it's a great shoe-in to win, and want to submit it, but:

My question is, is it legal to submit this photo for a contest without the consent (written or otherwise) of the people in the picture?

I'm totally new to the legality of photography, so any help you folks can provide is VERY appreciated!
