What if I enter my submission in an incorrect category?
The Head Judge may move your entry into the appropriate category (if possible).

well as comments from the judge. Judges are asked to highlight strengths and
weaknesses and present specific aspects that could be improved.

CFWF Annual Conference. A press release is also distributed announcing the winners
and is posted on the CFWF website (www.cfwf.ca). Winners receive a plaque and a cheque.
