FireBox Studios and the Marietta/Washington County CVB recently took home a second place Middy Award in the Web Site category for the comprehensive web site we built for them at mariettaohio.org. That makes two Middy’s in a row for us in this category. Last year we received a second place Middy for the Hocking Hills website.

The Ohio Association of Convention and Visitor’s Bureaus’ (OACVB) Annual Awards of Excellence are named the “MIDDY Awards” to reflect the Midwest region of the country, as well as the states contiguous to Ohio. Participants are recognized for excellence in planning, creativity and effectiveness of message, concept and design. The MIDDY Awards competition is open to all members of the Ohio Association of Convention and Visitors Bureaus. While other Middy categories are grouped by the budgets of CVB’s, the web site category is not. This means we were up against much larger markets like Columbus and Cleveland. Not bad, eh?
