2022 Nevada Press Foundation Awards of Excellence (Rules & Categories)

The 2022 contest website is now open for entries and will remain open until 5:00pm on Friday, May 27. However, if you want to save $5 per entry in entry fees, you must submit your entries by 11:59pm on Sunday, May 22. The rules, categories and entry instructions are included below.

Online Entry

The Nevada Press Foundation sponsors the Awards of Excellence and uses an online entry and judging system hosted by SmallTownPapers, Inc.

The main contest page is betternewspapercontest.com, where contestants go to submit their entries digitally.  Seven categories still require hard copies to be mailed, but even those must be registered on the contest website. Note that for most categories, the entry may have been published in print or online.

You can also download an interactive PDF of the Call for Entries that includes a tally sheet you can use to keep track of your entries.

Details

Contest Dates: All entry material must have been originally published between April 1, 2021, and March 31, 2022. Entries are limited to regular and affiliate members who have paid their 2022 dues. If your publication is not a member and you are interested in joining please contact us.

One important change in this year’s contest: Entries will not be accepted from individuals separate from the news organization that published their work.

Deadline: To qualify for the early-entry fee of $10 per entry, entries must be posted on the contest website by 11:59pm on Sunday, May 22. Mail-in entries must be received by the close of business on Friday, May 27.

Mailing address: Nevada Press Foundation,
 P.O. Box 2257, Carson City, NV 89702.

Questions? Contact Denise Clodjeaux at 775-885-0866 or nevadapresscontest (at) gmail dot com.

Fees: The fee is $10 per entry received by May 22, and $15 per entry received after May 22. Payment must be received before entries will be judged. Please make checks payable to the Nevada Press Foundation.

Results: Winning entries will be announced in August and the order of finish will be presented at the 2022 NPA Convention and Awards Banquet, which is tentatively scheduled for mid-September in Las Vegas. We will announce more information about the convention within the next few weeks.

Groups

  • Urban — News organizations that serve the Las Vegas or Reno metro areas
  • Rural — News organizations that serve rural areas of the state
  • Magazines

(Note: News organizations that wish to compete against larger publications may “move up” to Urban even if they’re largely rural.)

In categories in which a particular group (i.e., Urban, Rural or Magazines) submits fewer than three entries (or in which a single news organization submits the only entries within a group), entries for that group will be combined with another group to guarantee a minimum level of competition.

IMPORTANT: All photos, graphics, and ads must be submitted in context as a PDF, JPEG or weblink of the page on which they were published. Freestanding graphic files may be included in an entry but the entry will not qualify for competition unless it also includes the full page on which the graphic was published.

Mail-in Categories

For mail-in categories, complete the entry information on the contest website, as you would any other entry. After it has been submitted, print the entry label generated by the website and attach it to your mail-in entry. Mail or ship the entries to the Nevada Press Foundation at P.O. Box 2257, Carson City, NV 89702.
