Congratulations to one-time Simcoe Reformer colleague Dan Pearce for winning the A. Ross Weichel Memorial Award For Special Projects at yesterday's Ontario Newspaper Awards, presented in Kingston.
Dan won for a series of profiles on Norfolk County's World War II soldiers last summer which assistant managing ed. Gregg McLachlan oversaw and laid out. It was a group project, though, so Dan and Gregg's names didn't go on the trophy, just the paper's. Still, everyone should know they did a great job.
Two Reformer alums, Kalvin Reid of the St. Catharines Standard and Woodstock Sentinel-Review photographer Elliott Ferguson, were also winners.
The real coup for another hometown broadsheet, the Kingston Whig-Standard, was seeing former staffers Tamsin McMahon (now at The Record in Kitchener-Waterloo) and Michael Den Tandt (Owen Sound Sun-Times) each receive two awards. Four current Whig staffers were also honoured — Rob Tripp, Brock Harrison, Paul Schliesmann and Michael Lea.
