Let's Get Connected!

With a wealth of PR talent in the central Virginia region, the Virginia Public Relations Awards celebrate that talent with an program that recognizes winners in several tactical and strategic entry categories.

In 2008, the award programs' slogan is "Let's Get Connected," in a nod to social media and all that it entails.

And speaking of social media, this blog is your peek behind the scenes as the 2008 Awards Committee plans this not-to-be-missed event.

Fresh, fresh--baby, fresh!

Hi! I'm Theresa House, and I'm working to make your online experience valuable and FRESH. I'm certainly not doing it by myself--what a great committee we have! Every member of our committee geniunely cares about your user experience.

Speaking of your online experience, we've got some great things in store for you. Our first priority has been to be sure that you have all of the information you need to be a part of this longstanding and prestigious awards program. That's why the 2008 Awards Information web page on prsarichmond.org is your go-to resource for all things awards. (Find a link in the upper-right corner of this blog.)

Need a little inspiration for preparing your award entries? We've got a great Webinar planned for you. Get pointers from Matt Isner with Charles Ryan Associates, and Jeff Wilson with CRT/tanaka. Charles Ryan Associates walked (or maybe danced) away from last year's awards with the Silver Best in Show Award for its Virginians for Better Transportation community relations program. And I've lost count of the many awards that perennial favorite CRT/tanaka hauls away every year. Who better to learn from, right?


Learn more about the Webinar and register online!


I hope you'll take advantage of all that the Web has to offer. If you'd like to share an idea or offer a comment, then I'd love to hear from you.
