Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Ackley - Ackley World Journal Entry Title: Youth Sports Entry Credit: Cheri Dirks, Joy Walker, Brent Lennard Judge Comment: This ad was in a tight competition for top choice with another similar sports ad. I really like the clean text for the rosters. I would have turned off hyphenation so that none of the names are chopped in have. I like that this has a fewer number of ads that are larger, it makes that portion of the ad cleaner and easier on the eyes. Good work.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Hartley - The Hartley Sentinel-The Everly/Royal Ne Entry Title: Grief Support Group Entry Credit: Nicholas Pedley Judge Comment: The design of this ad is very appropriate for the subject. It is simple in design and easy to read. Black-and-white ads often can be limiting, but in this case I think it works better than if it were in color. I think it would really stand out in BW but placed on a color page.
