Thank you for the hundreds of entries that were submitted for this year's Best of Indiana Journalism contest.
We're sorry to say that the coronavirus pandemic has forced the decision to not hold our annual awards banquet this year.
The Indiana Pro Chapter of SPJ will be announcing all the contest winners in the coming weeks as well as how we will distribute plaques and certificates to recognize those achievements. Your contest entries showed outstanding work by broadcast, print and online professional and collegiate journalists across our state.
We'll also have an exciting announcement coming soon about winners of the chapter’s college scholarships. The scholarships are made possible by contest entry proceeds -- so we appreciate everyone who participated in our contest.
We know this is a stressful time for all of us, but we are seeing outstanding journalism throughout the state about the pandemic’s impact on Hoosiers. We look forward to gathering again next year to celebrate the Best of Indiana Journalism!
