Message from The Medina County Gazette
about Best of the Best Awards Plaques
From Jason Gwinnup, Advertising Director with The Medina County Gazette:

I have received numerous calls from companies throughout Medina County inquring about plaques being sold to companies participating in the Best of the Best contest from a company called Showtime Awards.

Both winners and non-winners are being contacted.

The Medina County Gazette does not sell these awards. The company contacting the participants is not affiliated with The Gazette in any way. This has been going on for many years – while not illegal - Showtime Awards is profiting off The Gazette's Best of the Best contest. The Gazette provides all winners of the contest with a certificate, and allows them to use the official logo in all marketing.

For further questions, contact Jason Gwinnup, Advertising Director with The Medina County Gazette directly at (330) 721-4002 or JGwinnup@medina-gazette.com
