Established in 1974 to honor excellence in the New Jersey communications industry, this year’s Jasper Awards received more than 220 entries in 100 categories, encompassing advertising, print materials, direct mail, corporate identity, special purpose print material, radio and television, audio/visual, excellence in writing, media and public relations, special events, and interactive communications.
Entries were judged by a panel of experts from around the tri-state area based on criteria such as creativity, concept, artwork, and effectiveness in reaching the target audience. The awards panel accepted 239 entries and presented a total of 106 awards to 46 firms around the state.
The JASPER Awards support the James R. McCormick Memorial Scholarship Fund, which was established in 1983 to recognize outstanding achievements and provide financial assistance for Shore-area students. Jim McCormick was an active JSPRAA member who was killed tragically that year. At the time of his death, Jim served the residents of the Monmouth County area as Director of Public Information and Tourism. He had also worked as a reporter for both the Register in Shrewsbury and the Asbury Park Press.
In Jim’s honor, JSPRAA awards several scholarships annually. Since the fund’s inception, JSPRAA has awarded more than $100,000 to young, aspiring students from Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
