2021 Maine Press Awards

This year, PenBayPilot.com writer Kay Stephens earned three awards:


First Place,
Kay Stephens, Analysis:  The impact of COVID-19’s urban flight on Maine.
Judges wrote: “
Such good writing. Lots of information, along with empathy for both sides of the invasion. I liked that you presented all the angles and then drew a conclusion.”

Third Place, Kay Stephens, Food Story Feature: Back off squirrels, these acorns are mine.
Judges wrote: “Your self-deprecating humor made this an entertaining read. I wish you had explained why acorn flour is so wonderful as to justify all the hard work.”

Third Place, Kay Stephens, Education: What are Maine families without internet connection supposed to do for the rest of the school year?
Judges wrote: “Good story on a common problem for all schools during COVID.”
