MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENT
All entrants must be a paid member of the Press Club to submit nominations for the annual Excellence in Journalism competition. Anyone submitting an entry must be a paid member by our deadline for entries, which is May 29 at 5 p.m. or your entries will be disqualified.

PAYMENT
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have deeply discounted our entry fee from $25 to $10 per entry, to better enable members who are on furlough or otherwise experiencing financial insecurity or hardship to participate in the contest, while at the same time, ensuring that the club can fund the scholarships and pay operating expenses. Payment for awards submissions can be made online at the BNC website. When you are done submitting your entries, click on “Manage Entries” and in the upper right corner; click “Calculate Entry Fee.” This will give you the total amount you owe for submissions. You may submit your payment through PayPal.
