All entries, except General Excellence, will be submitted and judged online. • SPJ members will receive a $5 discount on contest entry submissions, $20 for regular entries and $50 for General Excellence entries. Non-SPJ members will pay $25 and $45, respectively. In the 2010 contest, approximately 2,500 entries were received from around the region. A similar number is anticipated this year. In March, entries will be submitted to out-of-state journalists for judging, due back in April. Preliminary winners’ notifications will be made in mid to late April. The Western Washington Pro and Southwestern Washington/Oregon Pro SPJ chapters will present awards to those in their respective chapters at awards banquets in Seattle and Portland on Saturday, May 19. The remaining awards will be announced online that evening and presented by their respective chapter leaders.
