As a proud sponsor of the Reel Paddling Film Fesival, YAKIMA recognizes the significance of audience participation and has created the YAKIMA People’s Choice Award. Following eight months of touring more than 30 films to 16,000 outdoor enthusiasts in 75 cities, the YAKIMA People’s Choice Award will be presented to the highest-rated film as voted by the RPFF World Tour audience. The winning director of this prestigious award will receive $500.
Audiences will have the chance to rank all eligible films after each screening. Ballots can be found in the RPFF evening programs. Completed ballots will be deposited in the box provided to all World Tour hosts.
The YAKIMA People’s Choice Award winner will be announced and screened at the 2009 TAPS West Coast Sea Kayak Symposium in Port Townsend, WA, September 2009.
