The Town of Queen Creek’s marketing and communications efforts were recently honored with two awards at the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) Phoenix annual awards ceremony and the City-County Communications & Marketing Association’s (3CMA) annual SAVVY Awards.
Both the town’s HayQC! campaign and the outreach efforts conducted in support of the Law Enforcement Study received Awards of Merit from PRSA. The Copper Anvil Awards recognize outstanding public relations tactics and campaigns that reflect the highest standards of performance in public relations throughout the state.
Earlier this fall, Queen Creek’s recycling event, including the new “fast pass” feature, was awarded the Award of Excellence from 3CMA. The SAVVY Awards recognize outstanding government achievements in communications, public-sector marketing and citizen-government relationships throughout the nation.
“Keeping our residents and businesses informed and engaged is a top priority in our community,” said Queen Creek Mayor Gail Barney. “With so many important programs taking place in Queen Creek, particularly starting our new police department, it’s vital that community members stay informed. These awards highlight our best practices, and I’m proud that we’re able to serve as an example for cities and towns around the country.”
