It's a time when we take the opportunity to recognize our peers in the communications practice for the tremendous strategic work they are undertaking within their respective organizations. And, this is a time when we take the opportunity to learn and share best practices within our IABC community. Over the last few years, the IABC/Toronto OVATION awards program has grown in both its popularity and impact and I'm very pleased to note that this year is no exception. This year's organizing committee received close to 100 entries to be reviewed by our committee of distinguished judges. The judging committee consisted of senior-level communicators and accredited IABC members who methodically examined, discussed and provided feedback for each entry. The judging committee is truly an exceptional group of individuals that continue to demonstrate a real spirit of volunteerism within the chapter. As we say so often, volunteers are the life-blood of our association. As we recognize our judging committee, I would also like to thank Lisa Bélanger, IABC/Toronto VP, Awards, and her entire team for the countless hours dedicated to running our 2006 OVATION program. I know I speak for the entire chapter when I say that your efforts are so very much appreciated. Congratulations to all of the OVATION winners and thank you to everyone who participated in making this event both enjoyable and meaningful.
