The Citizen's web site, www.thecitizen.com, was awarded first place in their classification by the Suburban Newspapers of America for Best Multimedia Initiative.

Here are the judges' comments: "Thecitizen.com offers a variety of multi-media on the site. The site hosts and launches a variety of video projects, including The Citizen Sports Blitz and Game of the Week. Citizens Sports Blitz is a 10-minute program, produced by the sports staff and the Game Of The Week (a full-length game with audio commentary). Audio and video have added new dimensions to the site and have made it a local hot spot for sports information."

Thank you to all of the loyal viewers of these programs and the staff that made them possible.
