I was definitely disappointed that neither the website nor the blog got anything. All the social media awards went to Facebook pages, which is annoying to me.
Good news: Our PowerPoint presentation won a bronze, despite being in competition with cell phone apps and other more high-tech competitors. And Charlie got *another* award for the eNewsletter (that's three years in a row, for goodness sake).
And the Youth Silent Film Festival won Best New Event. Last year we got it for Memorial Day, so we're golden again (in this category) . . .
Overall, my own entries did not do that great. And considering the hours and hours of work, that bites. I mean, we won for the parade telecast, which does not require a notebook. And we got a silver for Best New Promotion and a bronze for Environmental Program. But three of the notebooks I prepared got nothing. And we got nothing at all in the Educational Program category, which is unbelievable . . .
Anyway, another year, another awards ceremony. And our weakest overall result in the past four years, despite the number of entries. Hopefully this blah feeling will pass and the competitive fire will rebuild in the old belly. But today, not so much.
