Awards will be based solely on the information included with the nomination. Please assume that the judges know very little about your project/destination. The background information should be as complete and concise as possible. To further enhance your nomination, you may submit ONE attachment that includes photos, digital materials, brochures, etc. Multiple items of support should be combined and presented as ONE attachment. Due to new Google regulations, your attachment should be emailed to Eric@howardcountytourism.com.  The judges reserve the right to change categories if appropriate. Judges who have a nomination in any category recuse themselves from voting in that category.

The Award Nomination Window is Now Closed.
