July President’s PRoclaimer Message

By Juliette Gebken-Mayi, APR

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Media Mashup in June. It was wonderful to see communications professionals and members of the media come together for half-day of meaningful conversations, new connections and fresh perspectives. Events like these are only possible because of the incredible support of our members, sponsors, speakers and volunteers, and I'm grateful to everyone who helped make it such a success.

As we look ahead, I encourage you to register, if you haven’t already, for the FPRA PR & Comms Summit, taking place August 9-12 at the Omni Orlando Resort at Championsgate. It's one of the best opportunities all year to invest in your professional growth, learn from industry leaders from around the nation and connect with colleagues. I hope to see many familiar Orlando faces there!

June also marked an important milestone for our chapter as members approved our 2026-2027 Board of Directors during Media Mashup. Thank you to everyone who participated in the voting process. I'm excited for this talented group of leaders to continue building on the momentum we've created together.

Finally, be sure to save the date for our Installation & End-of-Year Celebration at the end of August. It's one of my favorite events of the year as we celebrate everything we've accomplished, recognize the volunteers who make our chapter so special and officially welcome our new board.

Thank you for continuing to invest your time, talent and energy into FPRA Orlando and see you at Summit!

Seguimos!

Juliette Gebken-Mayi, APR
