2010 PALMY Advertising Awards

It's time to recognize your newspaper, your ad staff and your advertisers for their best efforts this year.

Enter the S.C. Press Association's annual PALMY Newspaper Advertising Contest. 

Here are the detailed rules and your entry forms. 


Please review your entries carefully and make sure no agency-produced ads are entered.  This would include ads from client in-house agencies. These should be entered in the Best Agency-Produced contest.

It is easy to prepare your entries.  Just tape a completed entry label to the front of a tearsheet and tape a marker arrow to indicate the ad, fold and mail with your master entry form and a check.

Please note that all winners will need to send a PDF of their winning ad(s) to Jen at jbarclay@scpress.org for inclusion in the awards presentation.

The entry deadline is April 2, which means entries must be postmarked, hand delivered or shipped by that date.  We will confirm receipt of your entries by e-mail.  If you have not received your confirmation by April 9, please let us know.

The awards presentations will be made at the 2010 PALMY Awards in Columbia in June.  A special night is being planned to recognize the best and brightest professionals in our state's newspaper advertising departments.

With your participation, this contest will grow in numbers, quality and prestige.  Please enter your best ads.  If you have a question regarding entries or rules, call us at 1-888-SCPRESS.
