National Festival: Awards
Below is a list of awards typically given at the national festival. However, there is neither a minimum nor a maximum number to be given for any award, and no award needs to be given in a particular category where the adjudicators believe none is deserved. Additional awards also may be given if the adjudicators agree that there is some other achievement deserving of special recognition.
