Call for Judges is Now Open

We are seeking local marketing experts from the nonprofit and for-profit sectors to evaluate entries among fifteen categories and help determine who should be recognized at the event. Judges are asked to review only one category; therefore, even if you submitted an entry, you are still eligible to serve as a judge! You will simply be assigned to a category in which there are no conflicts of interest.
