By now, members have received the Canadian Community Newspapers Association’s (CCNA) official 2003 Better Newspapers Competition entry book. If not, you can also download the book from the links on the right-hand side of the page. The entry book contains details for over 50 classes of competition, covering everything from writing and photography to advertising, cartooning, and special sections.

This is the time when newspaper staff across the country spread the past year’s issues all over their tables, combing through them to find their very best work.

But with so many categories to choose from, how can you be sure you’ve done everything right? Organization and careful planning are key to getting your entries in on time.
