2016 Media Awards

 Attention County PRO
It’s that time again just when you thought all your hard work was over. IT’S MEDIA AWARDS TIME!  The Awards will be held this year in the Salthill Hotel on Saturday 26th November.

There is a slightly different format this year, hopefully you will have picked up your new scrapbook over the Festival Weekends, this gives everyone the same starting block.   If you have not received your scrapbook, please email us by clicking here.

Can you please put your paper cutting/photos from your local paper into the scrapbook using whatever format you wish.  The closing date will be FRIDAY 11th NOVEMBER for receipt of the books. Please post them to Bernie Brennan, Community Games, 20 Inish Carraig House, Golden Island, Athlone, Co. Westmeath. 

THERE ARE 2 NEW AWARDS THIS YEAR
1/ The Best Written Article that you have had published this year (this needs to be submitted in a sealed envelope)
