Good morning Treasure Coast,
Fresh from my cruise on the Disney Wonder, I feel like the FPRA Treasure Coast Chapter's Cruise Director. Navigating through membership renewals, monthly professional development programs and communication efforts, it is an exciting and interesting voyage that I am pleased to be on with all of you. And sometimes, like the photo, I just feel like Goofy ~ see the next paragraph for more information on that!

In our excitement and eagerness to plan the year’s programs and other events, we failed to notice that the November program was scheduled on Veterans Day. As many people will be off for the day and it’s just plain unpatriotic, we’ve rescheduled the November program to the following week. It is now scheduled for Tuesday, November 18th at my office in Stuart. The program is focusing on “How Public Relations Played a Role in the Elections?” With the elections over, the program will examine how our profession played a key role in shaping perceptions and opinions for local, state and federal elections and voter turnout. This event will be held at the South Florida Water Management District’s Martin/St. Lucie Service Center located at 780 SE Indian Street in Stuart.

Congratulations to Dale Kostakos, of Helping People Succeed, for making the September 29th edition of Luminaries’ “In the Limelight” featuring the 2009 Art for Living Calendar.

Our Immediate Past President, Adrienne Moore, APR, CPRC, has joined the Gold Coast PR Council in West Palm Beach. Their monthly meetings may be of interest to some of our members who work in Palm Beach or Martin Counties, so I am passing along their information. The Tuesday, October 21st meeting is called: URGENT CHALLENGES: How PR Professionals Can Survive & Thrive in a Rapidly Changing Media Market. It’s a panel discussion moderated by Jeff Zbar, columnist for the South Florida Business Journal and panelists include: Rick Christie, Assistant Managing Editor of The Palm Beach Post; Jason Hughes, Director of Media Relations at Lynn University; and Tracy Tilson, President of Tilson PR. Additionally, they will distribute a new list of “Who Now Covers What” from the Palm Beach Post and Sun-Sentinel.

Have a great week!
