The Printing & Imaging Association Mountain States (PIAMS) announces its Call for Entries for the 2009 Annual PRIDE Award Competition. From all around the western United States, top companies compete to see if they have what it takes to be the "best of the best" in the Design and Print arena. 

Winning pieces are rewarded with distinction in four divisions based on company size. The distinction of being an award winning company helps attract customers, improves name recognition, and makes winners stand out against their competitors.

Organizations that are striving to be the best make a dedicated effort to improve their quality and don't settle for anything less than perfection. Companies who have never entered before are urged to see if they can reach the highest peak in their industry.

Recipients will be honored and winning entries will be prominently displayed during the PRIDE Award Banquet, in May 2010. This signature event features nationally renowned entertainment and one-of-a kind peer-to-peer networking.

Experts in design, printing, paper, marketing and technical printing serve as the official judges for the PRIDE competition. 

Peczuh Printing Company in Grand Junction Colorado won the 2008 top award "Best of Show Division II" and printed all of the marketing materials for the 2009 competition on paper donated by Unisource.
