Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: Estherville - Estherville News Entry Title: 40 years later, the girls win it all Entry Credit: David Swartz, Taylor Nissen Judge Comment: Interesting way to recognize an achievement and remember the past. It was all good, maybe my favorite part was the young women holding up their piece of the net and saying what the championship meant to them.
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Ida Grove - Ida County Courier Entry Title: Ida Grove E10 Entry Credit: Jenny Seuntjens, Brent Harm Judge Comment: For good ideas, this was the best. Big event coming to town and letting the visitors know how to make the most of their time in Ida Grove from places to eat, local bands and landmarks.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Estherville - Estherville News Entry Title: Beef Month Entry Credit: Taylor Nissen, Amy H Peterson, David Swartz Judge Comment: Certainly not the biggest of the entries, but the reporting had a level of interest that was impressive. Good art. Recipes. Just a lot of information on something important to the community.
