As Virginia’s capital chapter, PRSA Richmond is proud to have recognized public relations talent from across the Commonwealth for 63 years. In 2010, we are rechristening our awards show to reflect that pride. The awards will continue to celebrate the most creative and effective communications programs and tactics with a few new twists:
AWARD NAMES: In response to participant feedback, the award categories are being newly branded this year:
- PR Programs will be recognized with “The Commonwealth Award” (and “The Commonwealth Award of Merit”).
- PR Tactics will be recognized with “The Capital Award” (and “The Capital Award of Merit”).
INDIVIDUAL AWARDS: The chapter will again honor a seasoned practitioner with the “Thomas Jefferson Award,” but we’ve also added a new “Rising Star Award” for practitioners with three years (or fewer) of professional PR experience. Application information is highlighted in the Call-for-Entries.
CALL-FOR-ENTRIES: Entry Forms will be distributed at the Jan. 27 PRSA Richmond luncheon at the Sheraton Hotel, but why wait until then? Download the 2010 Call for Entries now!
SAVE-THE DATE: This year’s awards ceremony will take place Thursday, May 6 at The Jefferson Hotel from 5:30-8:30 p.m. Mark your calendars now!
