A few weeks ago, the Clairemont team was honored at the Sir Walter Raleigh Awards for Excellence in Communication ceremony hosted by the Raleigh Public Relations Society. It was my first Raleigh Public Relations Society event, so I was particularly excited to learn more about the organization and to network with fellow communications professionals, including our office neighbors over at the Marbles Kids Museum.

All in all, it was a lovely evening spent among some of the area’s most talented PR professionals. Hats off to everyone who pitched in to make the evening a smashing success.

The Clairemont team brought home six awards (this brings our total award count to 20 for the year)! Among the awards were the following: Gold – Best in Division in the “More Bang for the Buck” Special Event/Campaign category for the Eighth Annual Triangle Family Services Gingerbread Benefit; Gold in the Total Communications/Community Relations Campaign for Organizational Identity/Promotion category for Briar Chapel; Silver  in the Publications/Brochure/Handbook/Guidebook category for our Drexel Heritage furniture collections brochures; and Silver in the Publications category for our Clairemont Communications Quickie Card.

Congratulations to the marketing and communications team over at Meredith College who we couldn’t help but notice was a big winner that night. And congratulations to all of our fellow award winners and friends. We’ll see you next year!
