2010 NACIO Awards of Excellence: Announcement
It’s not too early to start thinking about showcasing your best communications work and determining your entries for the 2010 NACIO Awards of Excellence! I am excited about the competition ahead and look forward to serving as your Awards of Excellence Chairman. My organization, Hillsborough County, Florida’s Communications Department participates in many valuable awards programs. But, our favorite is the NACIO Awards of Excellence because of the vast amount of entries from the finest county government entities in the nation. It is a tremendous honor to be recognized with a NACIO Award of Excellence. So, plan now to submit entries. An official 2010 NACIO Awards of Excellence Call for Entries will be emailed out to you in early January. Best Wishes, 2009 NACIO Events in Nashville
