Time is running out to file your entry for the annual National Underwriter "Commercial Insurance Agency of the Year" award program, with all submissions due by July 14.

Three finalists will win a free trip to New York City, where NU's 2008 Champion will be announced and given a trophy at a special ceremony on Sept. 26, with the remaining two finalists awarded a plaque for an Honorable Mention.

All three finalists will be profiled in NU's Sept. 29 edition. In addition, the finalists will participate in a special "NU Roundtable" following the award presentation to discuss "The Future of the Independent Agent." Highlights will appear in the Nov. 3 edition.
