  • Place Name: First Place
    Contestant Name: Richmond Times-Dispatch
    Entry Title: Virginia League of Conservation Voters
    Entry Credit: Farah Walton
    Judge Comment: Not sure if this ad is being ironic or sincere but it certainly catches your eye — with the brick wall art complementing the ad copy for sure. Maybe a specific call-to-action within the advertisement would clarify the position of the Virginia League of Conservation Voters in this particular advertisement.
  • Place Name: Alternate Winner
    Contestant Name: Richmond Times-Dispatch
    Entry Title: Kelleher
    Entry Credit: Stefen Williams
    Judge Comment: Colorful ad and I'm sure very appropriate for the Richmond Flying Squirrels promotion section in which it ran. I like the nod to the company's 1968 roots and how easy it is to contact the business via telephone or the web.
  • Competition Comment: Two ads that stand-out to the reader. Nice graphics and color in both presentations.
