Thanks again! We're #3

The Society of Professional Journalists Pacific Northwest regional awards were handed out this weekend at Safeco Park and CHS was again recognized as one of the leading hyperlocal news sites. On the planet. No #1 for us this time, however -- We came in third. But check out the competition that knocked us off! Burien and Walla Walla? Clearly we had no chance of a repeat. Still thanks for all the support. Attached, please find the best picture taken of jseattle by the roving awards ceremony photographers. At one point during the evening, but not when the picture was taken, jseattle was sitting right behind that railing.
