START GETTING READY NOW FOR THE 2017 FLORIDA PRINT AWARDS As you look forward to participating in the competition, we offer the following suggestions to make it easier for you to enter: Gather and carefully examine a job immediately upon completion. Don t wait until you receive your annual Call for Entries and then go to your sample area to see what is available. By setting aside samples throughout the year, as jobs are completed, you can be sure you are within the dates of production to qualify. Set aside four or five samples of a potential entry. Have a qualified person or committee examine the pieces to see if they meet competition standards. Secure these potential entries in a location that is strictly hands-off to everyone. When entry time arrives, review what category or categories into which the piece should be entered. It is not unusual for a given piece to qualify for entry into several different categories, thus increasing the potential for it to receive an award or multiple awards. Good luck! We look forward to seeing you at the awards banquet next year! 26 Produced by
