Campbell will help to select the most outstanding of 150-plus entries for the local ADDY Awards competition (covering Florence, Georgetown and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and Wilmington, North Carolina), the first of a three-tier, national competition conducted annually by the American Advertising Federation (AAF).

At the second tier, local winners will compete against other winners in one of 14 District competitions. District winners then advance to the third tier, the national ADDY® Awards competition.

Says Campbell, “I am honored to be selected to judge the Coastal Carolinas ADDYs competition.  The AAF-Costal Carolinas has a great number of advertising agencies, design firms, marketing organizations and PR companies that produce wonderful work … I can’t wait to see it!”
