Yes, it's time to announce the top B.O.C. awards for June. This month's nominees include those selected by your host as well as those submitted by various members of the voting public. As always, additional nominations are encouraged and may be tacked onto this list as long as they were properly logged onto the CPF between June 1st and June 30th. If there are any disputes the decision of the judges will be completely ignored.
