Arizona Press Club

Winners of the 2011 Arizona Press Club contest

Here is the list you've been waiting for – the winners of the 2011 Arizona Press Club contest.

You'll see the names of the winners, but not what honors they received. To learn those details, please plan to join us for a fun and casual awards party Saturday, May 19 at The Duce, 525 S. Central Ave. in downtown Phoenix. Starting at 6 p.m., we’ll have slider baskets and a cash bar with fun options like spiked lemonade and sodas. Then we’ll take to the indoor bleachers and hear the irreverent Arizona Daily Star columnist David Fitzsimmons – back by popular demand – present our awards and skewer our industry. Tickets are $15 per person.

Congratulations to this year's winners! And whether you won an award or not, we hope to see you on May 19!
