Time to cozy up and gab about the upcoming ADDY Awards. Now I know you’ve all marked your calendars for the big show on March 7. So let’s talk entries. You should have received your invitation and call for entries in the mail — sent with love from yours truly.

Don’t be shy now, surely you have some fabulous work you want to enter this year! All entries are due on Wednesday, January 7th. Personally, the only things that keep me going after the holidays are a stiff drink and good company, so this year’s ADDY drop off’s going to be a bit different. From 3 to 6 pm on the 7th, all entries should be dropped off at Volt Restaurant, located at 228 North Market Street, in their private dining room. Oooh la, la. Entry payment can be made by check, payable to the Greater Frederick Advertising Federation, or just go to the “Entry Payment” section of the ADDY website and pay with plastic.

But don’t drop and beat feet! After you deliver your entries, join your fellow club members in Volt’s lounge to celebrate another year of ADDYs. The fabulous crew at Volt has even created two signature drinks for the event: Expos-ur-tini and ADDY-tini. (Honey, honored doesn’t begin to cover it!)

Now pay attention, entries will NOT be accepted after 6 pm on January 7th. But because they’re such peaches, your ADDY co-chairs have agreed to a late bird deadline of Monday, January 12. These entries MUST be entered online and delivered to Jean Peterson Design, 3 West Church Street, NO LATER THAN 3 pm.

XOXO,
Addy
