Thank you to everyone who reached out over the past day. We heard from quite a few newsrooms working hard to finalize their submissions. To ensure everyone has the time they need, we will be leaving the contest portal open through midnight on Sunday, November 16.

There’s no need to rush tonight. We won’t begin reviewing entries until Monday, so you can continue uploading and completing your submissions throughout the weekend.

We’re grateful for the tremendous participation this year and excited to see the work you’ve put forward.

We are still accepting entries across all divisions — Editorial, Advertising, and College! Whether you’re a publisher, newsroom leader, reporter, ad director, sales rep, or a student editor or journalist, entering is simple, digital, and rewarding.

This is your opportunity to showcase your best work from the past year and gain recognition for excellence in New England journalism. Entering is truly easier than you think! The entire entry process is online — no printing, mailing, or complicated steps. You can upload files, include URLs, and even have billing handled after the deadline.

If you’re actively working on submissions and anticipate any difficulty meeting the deadline, please feel free to reach out and let us know.

For further information, please email Linda Conway at l.conway@nenpa.com or Tara Cleary at t.cleary@nenpa.com.
