One award each will still be given to a landed club and a non-landed club judged to have the best newsletter for the previous year. Duplicate awards will only be given in case of a tie. Each winning club newsletter will be awarded a plaque which will go to the club. Each winning editor shall be awarded a prize certificate. All non-winning editors also shall get certificates of participation. The judges review sheets, with comments, shall be returned to each editor to assist in improving his or her newsletter. It is hoped that additional clubs will enter the competition and that all clubs in the region will eventually benefit from better publication values in all newsletters. <br>No matter whether your newsletter is judged the best, you will still be in a win-win situation, as you will gain free feedback that you can use to make your club newsletter a better publication.<br>Mike Parker <br>AANR-NW Newsletter Awards Chair<br><br><br> </td>
