The Gold Circle is for those with 50+ years working in pursuit of our profession’s highest and most noble goals, primarily within our chapter.
In addition to setting a high standard for work within our industry, Circles inductees are also noted for community service, which may also include service to the broadcasting industry, mentoring upcoming journalists, service to NATAS and general contributions to the community at large.
Nominees may include those in academic, administrative, creative, journalistic, performing or technical roles within the television industry. This milestone is reserved for professionals who haven’t just witnessed change in an industry, they’ve led it. Gold and Silver Circle inductees are nominated by their peers through a selection committee established by NATAS NW.
The Gold & Silver Circle Honors will be held Friday, May 31st, at Fremont Studios in Seattle.

Discounts for Judging
If you judged a minimum of two categories in 2024 you will receive $50 discounts on each entry you are listed as an entrant. This discount applies ONLY to individual(s) who judged, not the entire entry. If you are submitting for multiple entrants and they have suggested they judged, but the fee does not reflect, reach out to northwest@emmyonline.tv. We will confirm.
If you are basking in discounts on 2025 entries, be sure you participate and build your judging reserves. We will have entries from Boston/New England, Central Great Lakes, National Capital Cheseapeake Bay, Pacific Southwest, Rocky Mountain, AND Southeast. If you have not judged before, just let us know. It’s much simpler than you think!
