The clock is ticking. The pressure is on. The competition for top honors is stiff. And the pay-off? Cheers, accolades, the admiration of your peers — not to mention a cool $3,000 cash prize along with a complimentary registration to the next SAF convention.
That’s what’s at stake next month during the 50th Annual Sylvia Cup Design Competition at SAF Palm Springs 2018, Sept. 12-15 at the Westin Mission Hills in Rancho Mirage, California.
