You may be asking yourself, "What's special about this year's PRSA Awards of Excellence Gala?". This question can be answered several ways: 1. Award of Excellence winners receive an acrylic trophy. 2. The Gala is being held at Club LeConte on Saturday, April 28, 2001. 3. The event is semi-formal. 4. Our committee will notify all Award of Excellence, Quality and Merit winners prior to the Gala so that you can bring your client, boss, etc. to the event. The deadline for entering this year's PRSA competition is March 15, 2001, at 5 p.m. and late registration is set for Friday, March 16, 2001, at 5 p.m. Start looking through your organization's accomplishments and prepare an award-winning entry. If you need help putting that entry together, sign up for the March 6th Award Planning Workshop that is being held at East Tennessee Children's Hospital at 5:30 p.m. Simply RSVP to this email or call me at 865-342-3014.
