     • Additional Prizes: Every entry, except the top three winners, will be entered into a drawing for

        other prizes such as hats, cups, pins, gift cards, and carving accessories. 

Entry Guidelines

     • Mail ornaments to NWCA Ornament Contest, PO Box 1625, Great Bend, KS 67530 (alternate mailing address is: 1400 Polk Street; Great Bend, KS 67530) .

•  Multiple entries per person are allowed. Entries from more than one carver can be mailed together to save on

        postage – just be sure to identify each ornament. Each entry must include the submitter’s name,

        address, phone number, and email for contact purposes.

     • Deadline: Ornaments must be received by November 1, 2024.

     • Ornaments will be photographed and posted on the NWCA website. An independent judge will

        determine the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners.

     • Entries do not have to be from NWCA members; the campaign is open to all carvers.

     • Mixed media and styles are allowed; ornaments must have a hook or string for hanging on a tree.

     • All entries must be created by the submitter and they become the property of the NWCA for use in this campaign.

Charity Donation

     • Our committee will select multiple options for children’s hospitals or care centers to donate the

        ornaments to in early December 2024. We will request that the charity provide a press release or

        photo of the donation for public relations purposes.

     • If you have a suggestion for a possible donation site, please let the committee know.

Contact us at nwcaweb@gmail.com with any questions or suggestions.  Thank you for your participation and support.  Let’s make this campaign a memorable and heartwarming success!
