Farewell Drakes, Hello ADDYs!

Oregon ADDYs


Following a mini-focus group of advertising industry participants and much discussion, the Drakes Committee and Advertising Federation of C.O. (AdFed)  Board have made the exciting decision  to evolve the Drake Awards into a state-wide ADDY® competition, now called the Oregon ADDY Awards.

The ADDY Awards represent the true spirit of creative excellence by recognizing all forms of advertising from media of all types, creative by all sizes and entrants of all levels.
