1st, 2nd, 3rd place icons for Newsletter contestFrom nediv.arrl.org:

Earlier this year, during one of the regular HamXposition meetings, Bruce, K1BG, and Larry, W1AST [the Eastern and Western MA Affiliated Club Coordinators, respectively] were talking about doing some sort of club-centric meetings From that discussion came the Clubs Forum which occurred Friday at the 2024 HamXpo.

Most of us know that clubs are the backbone of a healthy and active ham radio community. An active club most often has a newsletter that members get every month informing them of club activities and ham radio events. From this, we created the Club Newsletter Award.

Any club in New England could enter and was encouraged to do so. Newsletters would be ranked on design, layout, and information. The judge would be someone outside of New England. The top three newsletters would then be able to post the appropriate logo on their newsletters for the next year. The newsletter had to be from the second quarter of 2024 and submitted by July 5th.

The top 3 club newsletters would then NOT be able to submit again the following year, giving other clubs a chance to win the award.
