National features awards
Congratulations go out to reporters Maria Johnson and Dawn Kane, who both won writing awards of excellence in the American Association of Sunday and Features Editors contest. Maria won first place in the Short Feature category and Dawn won third place in the Arts and Entertainment category.
Maria's entry was a story about kids walking to school. Dawn's was about the people who turn the pages of the sheet music for pianists.
This is one of the biggies.
The win is bittersweet because Maria is one of the people we let go last month.
