Town Report Contest information
Each entry is reviewed by two judges, chosen based on their expertise in the field and their ability to remain impartial.
First-, second-, and third-place winners are selected in each of three categories based on population: less than 5,000; 5,000-12,499; and 12,500-plus.
Judging criteria include attractiveness of the report cover and layout; material arrangement; presentation of statistics and data; summary of the year’s achievements; evidence of local planning for the future; and the report’s practical utility.
Winners are recognized and given a plaque during an awards ceremony at the MMA’s Annual Meeting & Trade Show each January.
To enter, send two copies of your town report to: Town Report Contest, MMA, One Winthrop Square, Boston, MA 02110. (Two copies are required so that each judge may review the publication independently.)
