2004 RAP Awards Winners

Congratulations!

The ballots are in, and your votes have been counted! This year's competition was as tough as any, and the races were close, resulting in ties for 1st Place in two categories and 1st Runner-up in one category. "Ad Wizards" Jason Skaggs and Timothy Miles battled it out in Small Market Commercials virtually splitting all the awards in that category. Rob Frazier and Yaman Coskun had a similar battle in the Large Market Commercial category. Stewart Byars made RAP Awards history by being the first person to tie himself for first place in a category, netting himself two RAP Trophies for the Small Market Promo category. It doesn't get any sweeter than that!

Please join us in congratulating the winners, runners-up and finalists of the 15th Annual Radio And Production Awards!
