IABC-LA 2009 Award Event

IABC Los Angeles
Annual Awards Banquet
June 24, 2009

Hosted at Dodger Stadium
…we enjoyed a wonderful view of the field from our event suite.

We enjoyed networking with other communicators.

We got to sit in the Dodger dugout and tour the press box…

We had a wonderful meal…

Jamie Lipson, IABC-LApresident from 2008 – 2009 spoke about the chapter and thanked the out-going board for their hard work.
A few of the board members are seen standing here…

Our keynote speaker was Reed Dickens, former assistant white house press secretary. He spoke about crisis communications and his west-wing experiences.

Congratulations to Linda Livingstone, PhD, Dean and Professor of Management for Pepperdine University’s Graziadio School of Business and Management for winning IABC-LA’s 2009 SUCCESS Award.

Congratulations to board member Danielle Scott for winning the Sunshine Volunteer Award.

And everyone left with a bag of cracker jacks! What more could you ask for?
