2014, what an amazing year to celebrate!

It’s been an honor to serve as your president during this milestone year for PRSA Tampa Bay. We recognized not just one, but two 50-year anniversaries: The founding of our chapter in 1964 and the start of the national APR accreditation program a half-century ago.
In addition, our chapter membership has continued to grow as we’ve added more public relations professionals to our fold. Today, we stand at 224 members – an increase of more than 10 percent over the last years.
Our programs have flourished too. We kicked off the year with almost sold-out programs on writing skills and strategic communications planning, and ended just as strongly with excellent programs on media training and diversity outreach.
It’s taken many years of dedicated leadership and enthusiastic volunteers to reach these goals. It truly is a combined team effort to bring you the high-quality programs, networking opportunities and industry news that make up the backbone of your chapter membership.
Thank you to our board members, committee chairs and other volunteers for all your hard work this year. I have no doubt that PRSA Tampa Bay will continue to grow and reach even greater heights as we enter 2015.
Happy holidays!
Lisa Braswell, APR
2014 President
PRSA Tampa Bay
