Who is Your PR Hero?

Nominate them for a Special Award!

The CPRS Hamilton Special Awards are coveted public relations honours. Unlike the Pinnacle Awards where you submit your own work, Special Awards are nominated by peers. These awards recognize exceptional involvement in the profession. Both the nominee and the nominator must be CPRS Hamilton members in good standing, unless otherwise specified. Due to the stringent criteria, some Special Awards may not be awarded annually.

There is no cost to nominate your hero for one (or even more) of these special awards; Bill Cockman Memorial Award of Excellence in PR, Student Award of Excellence, CPRS Hamilton PR Professional of the Year, CPRS Hamilton Mentorship Award, Dr. Louis J. Cahill Distinguished Service Award, And a new award introduced April 2009: The Lorelei Kilgour Memorial Outstanding Practitioner Award

Each nomination must include a summary that details why the candidate fulfills the nomination criteria. All awards will be presented at a gala dinner during the CPRS Hamilton Pinnacle Awards on Wednesday, April 21 at the Old Powerhouse Restaurant in Stoney Creek. Honourees will be featured on the CPRS Hamilton web site.

The deadline for nominations is March 12, 2010, and can be submitted via email to Nancy Hutton, Pinnacle Chair at huttonn@londonhydro.com. For more information on the special awards categories, please click here.
