| Metro Member Frank Wemple accepted the awards on the club's behalf. In his letter presenting the awards to the Region: |
| "This is indeed a remarkable achievement! Third Place for the Bigelow Award means that Metro was the third best Region in 2004 based on how we scored on all the other Awards." |
| "And JIM KIDD should receive special accolades for his efforts in making The Metropolitan Skyline the superior publication that is is, as evidenced in our Third Place for the Turnquist Trophy." |
