Welcome to FPRA Treasure Coast Chapter's BLOG!

Hello and welcome to my first blog! Like many of you, I've heard about blogging over and over again, but never tried it. I hope you'll enjoy receiving weekly messages from me via this blog and hope this inspires you to try blogging for yourself!

Just a couple of quick items to start off your week, since the Installation Ceremony on Sept. 9th and even before that, many people have been working very hard to make the 2008-09 FPRA Treasure Coast year great. We want to bring VALUE to you, the members, in many different ways. Value for your dollar, value for your time and value for your profession. Together, we can build a network of professionals and put all the pieces of the puzzle together to form a great chapter. The goal for this year is to be Chapter of the Year! If we all work together, anything is possible.

Don't forget to join us for the first professional development opportunity this year for our monthly business meeting on October 14th at the IRSC Schreiber Center in St. Lucie West called, "Facebook, LinkedIn and Blogging for Dummies." Three experienced professionals, Bryan Beaty, Felonice Margasak and Scott Samples, will guide us through this unchartered territory on the web with hands-on experiences and opportunities. You don't want to miss this event! Register and pay online now at http://www.fpratreasurecoast.com/.

Speaking of websites, have you checked out your Chapter's website recently? You will be amazed at how wonderful and beautiful it is. Thanks so much to Global Design, Inc. and Linda Probst for all of the hard work that went into this awesome site. Check it out and come back often as new content is constantly being added! This past week, we added photos from the State's Annual Conference and Golden Image Awards Ceremony, the Chapter's Installation Ceremony and the first PR Workshop hosted by the Indian River Council. You'll also find this year's calendar of events, so you can mark your calendars for the entire year and never miss an exciting event hosted by the Chapter.

That's it for now. Have a blogtastic week!
