Hope you’re al having a great summer! This month’s video features our VP-Mentorship, Gina Meagher, as she describes a time-friendly way to become involved and help out other PR professionals.  

We are also proud to announce that tickets are now available for our PRISMs event on Thursday, Sept. 22. We will announce the winning companies next week. Prices for tickets increase after Sept. 9 with all tickets having to be purchased by 5 p.m. on Sept. 14. Due to headcount arrangements with the venue, no other tickets may be purchased after the Sept. 14 deadline.  

GKC-PRSA offers great programming this month including Aug. 9’s session of Making the Most of Professional Networking Opportunities and on Aug. 30 with an energetic Get-Real Leadership presentation featuring Durrie Vision CEO Harry Campbell. We are also very close to announcing details for the return of our PRSSA Summit on Oct. 21.
