The ADDY Awards are the world’s largest advertising competition—the industry equivalent to the Oscars®. Gold Level award winners of this competition proceed to regional competition. Regional Gold Award winners go to national. One of the winners of this competition could be a national winner…WOW.

We had entries in all forms of advertising from media of all types and creative in all sizes and shapes. The prestigious judges were from out of market, and entries were anonymous.

We owe huge debts of gratitude to many people for making this first event possible, including:

·       Co-chairs Tricia Speziale Edwards and Tim Shumbera

·       Corey Hudgins and Laveda Miles, ADDY mentors from AAF Greenville

·       Our fabulous volunteers, including Gary James,Laveda Miles, Karen Wessel, Katy Rosenberg, Dave Newell, Brenda Murphree, Connie Aridas, Jay Fields, Dwayne Long, Jay Kirk, and many others.

·       Judges Dwight Douthit, Stephen Rogers, and Amy Hollah

·       Presenting sponsors Asheville Citizen-Times and BP Solutions Group, Inc.
