President's Word

Well, I am sure we are all back in full swing after the holidays and with the start of the new year.  I know this time of year is considered ‘season’ here, and as PR professionals, we are always on the go, but even more so from January through April.  With so much going on, it can be hard to always make every meeting, but make sure to check out what is coming up in FPRA and try to make time.  I wanted to take a moment and get a few upcoming dates on your calendar.  The February 12 meeting will focus on sponsorships and how to make sure businesses are getting the most out of their participation, and the March 11 meeting will focus on how to prioritize your time and schedule between work and home life.  Two great meetings coming up, so make sure to get those on your calendar.  Also, note that we are approaching the Image Awards, and if you plan to submit, mark March 8 as your deadline to drop off your submission.  And, April 18 will be the Image Awards Ceremony at 6pm.  All of these are informative and fun events that you won’t want to miss.
