The Country Radio Seminar is currently accepting nominations for the 2014 Country Radio Hall of Fame. Nominations should be submitted online at CountryRadioSeminar.com, and following processing, each nominee will be provided with an official application. Applications must be returned to the CRS offices by Sept. 6.
Nominees may include air checks, press clippings, awards listings, and other materials for consideration, and inductees will be chosen by a select committee of Country radio and industry veterans along with members of the Country Radio Hall of Fame. Nominees must have at least 20 years on-air with a minimum of 15 in the country format, and have made significant contributions to the growth and development of the Country radio industry and ongoing contributions to the preservation and enhancement of Country music as an art form.
“We’re proud to open the nomination process for the Country Radio Hall of Fame, which is the highest honor bestowed on a Country radio professional. This will set in motion our effort to recognize the true legends of broadcasting in our industry; based on past inductees to the Country Radio Hall of Fame, the bar has definitely been set high for the class of 2014,” says CRS Hall of Fame Chairman RJ Curtis.
The 2014 Country Radio Hall of Fame Dinner and induction ceremony will be held Tuesday, Feb. 18, 2014, at the Nashville Convention Center. CRS 2014 is set for Feb. 19-21, 2014.
