You've all seen them in action during meetings, announcements and presentations at events by all levels of government and organizations.
They are the public relations people who do the organizing, arranging, writing of news releases and then stand by during events in case they are needed.
Three of the small 23-member Prince George region's Northern Lights chapter of Canadian Public Relations Society recently brought home more than their share of wins from a national conference in Regina.
Competing against chapters containing up to 400 members, Kevin Brown captured the Mentor of the Year Award while Cam McAlpine took the bronze in communications management, and Renee McCloskey won a seat on the CPRS national board.
In total the society presented 42 awards, most of which were awards of excellence.
