President's corner
Can you believe it’s already February? I hope you’ve survived Winter Storm Jonas and are ready for spring, like I am.
Fox Trot for Parkinson's
We’re calling on all PRSA members to join Team PRSA-WV at the Fox Trot for Parkinson’s Research on Saturday, March 19. The event begins at 9 a.m. at the Capitol Market in Charleston.
Come have a growlin' good time on Feb. 17
Join us for Happy Hour on Wednesday, February 17, for an evening of fun at Black Sheep Burritos & Brews...and bring a friend! We’ll be having a taco-themed dinner and each attendee gets a branded growler to keep!
So join us and to kick back and relax after all that snow shoveling during Winter Storm Jonas. Be sure to invite a friend who doesn’t yet belong to PRSA and the West Virginia Chapter. Chapter dues are FREE in February for new members with more than two years of experience joining PRSA!
The fee of $22 per person includes the taco bar, snacks and non-alcoholic beverages. A cash bar will be available with a discount on filling the growlers. We will be in the meeting room at Black Sheep Burritos & Brews, 702 Quarrier Street, Charleston, and parking is convenient near the restaurant in the Summers Street parking garage.
Reservations are required by Friday, February 12, and the cost of the event is $22 per person. Just register at prsawv.org.
A big thanks to The Manahan Group for sponsoring our growlers!
