Everyone, please pass the word. If you have a book in the running this year, please get out there and make sure that at least your city and state are in your profile. This is your responsibility to maintain unlike in years past. Without it, we will not be able to send the media release for nominees to your area...which will impact your promotional moment if you should be nominated. 

Thanks. :)

Just a note: Here is the scoop on the airport shuttle to the airport direct from our contact at the hotel, Matt.

"If the member does not schedule 7 or more days in advance the shuttle would be $84.00 per person.

If they meet the time line requirement it is $20.00 per person.

They are to phone (937) 431-4613. The person normally answering the phone is Amy

If she is not there Matt will try to answer her calls as well as his, so there may be a delay."

Hi everyone,

Was a very long day yesterday, but the books for 2012 awards have been reviewed, scored, ranked and evaluated. The nominees will be announced on Veterans Radio Network Saturday, July 28 beginning at 9 em est. Dwight Zimmerman will host the show and MWSA VP Mike Mullins will appear in the third segment to read the nominees. (Neither Mike nor Dwight will see the announcement until minutes before the show. <twinkle.>)

Hi all-

Below is a press release you may find of interest....I know I did!

Phil

I have set up two possibilities for our MWSA 2012 Anthology cover. As you know, the theme and the title is "Silent Battlefields" -- Here are the two mockups. They will of course look different once we know how many pages we will have and what we really want to put on the back.

Here are the two choices.

Option One -- Gettysburg in golds and browns.
