The Melville Advance claimed the coveted ‘Best Overall Paper’ at the Saskatchewan Weekly Newspaper Association annual convention in Regina recently.
The Advance, competing in the Class B-Circulation 2,001 to 3.499 finished ahead of runner-up Battlefords News Optimist and third place finisher Meadow Lake Progress.
The judge for Class B commended The Advance for its “great municipal and youth coverage”, its photography which used “creative angles, good content and innovative shots”, its advertising design which employed “creative ideas, clean lines and modern look” and its sports section which pointed out “good coverage, good headlines, good photos...”
Besides the Best Overall Paper award, The Advance was judged to have the Best Editorial Page. Battlefords News Optimist finished second while Estevan Mercury clinched third place.
In the Best Front Page category for Class B Battlefords edged The Advance to take top spot with third place going to Meadow Lake Progress.
Advance co-publisher Mark Orosz acknowledged the Advance staff for the dedication and effort they put into turning out the best product they can each and every week.
“Their expertise in the business and their commitment to their community is obvious when The Advance hits the newsstands or the mail boxes each week,” Orosz says.
“It’s also gratifying to have one’s peers acknowledge the product we publish. And, of course, our readers and advertisers deserve some credit for the ideas, tips and suggestions they continuously provide to make our paper better.”
