Happy New Year! 2015 has much in store for PRSA Tampa Bay members. This year we celebrate our chapter's 50^th year, kick off our PRestige Awards, rejuvenate our relationship with PRSSA and offer more opportunities for public service and member scholarships.

Have you thought about volunteering for PRSA Tampa Bay and didn't know where to start? The coming year provides many unique opportunities to maximize your membership through volunteering. If you have been thinking about getting involved in the chapter there has never been a better time. 

Ways to get involved:

• Membership: Communicate with current and prospective members

• Programs: Show your event planning, creativity and strategic-thinking skills by helping to plan and implement our monthly programs

• Professional Development Day and Media Roundtable are two of our most popular events: Help contact quality presenters, secure venues, plan content and operations

• PRestige Awards: Set the foundation for our inaugural awards ceremony by planning, operations and judging of communications campaign awards

• Digital communications: create blog content, manage the website (no coding required), communicate through social media and eNews

• Accreditation: APRs can help candidates through the process and receive hours for their accreditation maintenance

• Agency Leaders: Network with other independent practitioners and agencies and plan and provide opportunities to grow your business

• Diversity: Provide professional development opportunities to learn about diversity and provide assistance to diverse chapter members.
