Re: Judging of Woodie Flowers Award
This question may be slightly off topic, but I'll try it out anyways. Recently I was having a discussion about the Regional Woodie Flowers Award. This year 26 people were honored with this distinction, and given a chance to compete for the National award. Next year, can these same fine mentors win a Regional WFA again? If not, would 2004 regional honorees be considered for the 2005 National award?
I like the idea of honoring 26+ new individuals next year, but at the same time I would like it if the remaining 25 Regional WFA winners could still be eligible for the 2005 big prize. But considering what an exhaustive process exists to determine a winner, having the judges go through 51+ applications instead of 26+ seems a bit too arduous.
Any thoughts?
