FPRA Capital Chapter recognizes MCG team member

This Thursday marked the final meeting for the 2008-2009 Board of Directors for the Florida Public Relations Association Capital Chapter, led by Moore Consulting Group Senior Vice President Terrie Glover Ard, APR, CPRC.

While the entire chapter was recently recognized for its outstanding performance, the meeting offered an opportunity to honor specific board members for their contributions throughout the year, including Jamie Fortune, a director at Moore Consulting Group. Fortune was recognized as Member of the Year for her leadership in planning the chapter’s annual Roast and Toast event, which was held this year in honor of Tallahassee Mayor John Marks. The event was attended by more than 200 people, and raised thousands of dollars for student scholarships.

Moore Consulting Group congratulates both team members on a very successful year with FPRA!
