9:15 PM – Announcing the Spectrum 16 award winners: 6:50 PM – Thanks once again to those who submitted their work to Spectrum this year, and thanks as well to this year's jury and the assistants who volunteered their time to help today's event run smoothly as it did! 
Spectrum's Directors and Jury for 16 (from left): Arnie Fenner, Steven Sanders, Dave Dorman, Bob Self, Donato Giancola, Kevin Brimmer, and Cathy Fenner 
Assistants for the day were (from left): Lazarus Potter, Tracy Crawford, Armen Davis, Lucy Moreno, Gillian Titus, Angela Wheeler, and Arlo Burnett 6:30 PM – It's been a long day! The snow finally stopped some time this afternoon, but the weather didn't put a damper on the event – after lunch, things happened at a rapid-fire tempo as the jury hit their stride in viewing the pieces in the Unpublished category. With every submitted entry having been shown to the jury by 3:15pm, the debates over medal winners could now begin:
