SDCTA hosts the annual Golden Watchdog & Fleece Awards Dinner to inform and educate the taxpayers of San Diego County about the good, the bad and the ugly of government efficiency and spending.  These awards give the public a singular opportunity to voice their appreciation and disapproval of government spending practices by nominating programs that highlight fiscal decisions of the past year.

Award categories include:
• The coveted Golden Watchdog Award honoring good government practices and efficient use of public money.
• The dreaded Golden Fleece Award calling out wasteful, inefficient or downright absurd uses of taxpayer dollars.
• The Media Watchdog Award recognizing excellence in reporting on behalf of taxpayers.
• The Public-Private Partnership Award for cooperation between the public and private sectors, stretching taxpayer dollars.
