Missed the Rockies this year, or feel like reliving some of the festivities? Not to worry — plenty of pictures were taken. Like these:
The Boise Advertising Federation has the full list of this year’s Rockie Award winners. Gold winners were automatically advanced to the regional (District XI) American Advertising Awards.
Saturday evening, The Rockies happened. As an in-person event. Outdoors.
There was sun, and rain, and wind, and even some lightning in the distance. But Idaho spring weather aside, much credit to the Boise Advertising Federation and Idaho Advertising Federation for pulling off the show, making it comfortable for those who attended in person, and for offering a livestream for those that chose to watch from afar.
And now, a few highlights.

May 16, 2020.
That was the date for The Rockies, and it was set many months in advance.
But then, as Ryan Reynolds so eloquently put it recently…
Nevertheless, the Boise Advertising Federation quickly shifted, and held the show entirely online, with attendees watching and chatting via YouTube.
All in all it was a tremendous success, and everyone involved in making it happen deserves a ton of credit.

Much has been happening behind the scenes, and the Boise Advertising Federation sent out this update earlier today to the public at large about The Rockies.
2020 ROCKIES AWARD SHOW UPDATE
An Idaho Advertising Federation event, brought to you by The Boise Advertising Federation.
Thanks for being patient with us as we have carefully deliberated to determine the fate of the 2020 Rockies Award show due to COVID 19. The Rockies as an in-person event will not happen this year due to the sensitivity of social distancing while we work through this. It was a hard decision, but we will make it up to you with a big party the next time we get together.
The good news: Due to the size of our usual gathering and sensitivity in these times of COVID-19, we will instead present the Rockies Award Show as a livestream event. We still want to celebrate the creative spirit of our community by hosting a special livestream on May 16th. You guys worked too hard this past year for us to not do anything to acknowledge what you do best!
Stay tuned for details to watch the show on May 16th! See the winners, see the fun videos, have some drinks… all from the comfort of your living rooms and yoga pants. It’ll be free to watch and we also encourage you join us in donating to the Idaho Food Bank during the show. Watch it by yourself or in your groups no larger than 10, six feet apart. It will still be an amazing time.
