2008 PRSA-NCC Thoth Awards Competition
WHAT ARE THE THOTH AWARDS?
Named for the Egyptian god of communication, the Thoth (pronounced “tot”) Awards recognize the most outstanding, strategic public relations programs and components developed and produced in the Greater Washington area. Achievements are recognized in 27 categories, including 14 program categories that celebrate the very best PR campaigns and 13 component categories that highlight top accomplishments in PR tactics. The National Capital Chapter (NCC) of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) sponsors the Thoth competition to recognize and reward outstanding achievement in public relations and to encourage continued excellence in the field. Finalists in each category will be notified by e-mail in August following judging of the Thoth entries by senior practitioners. From these finalists, the Thoth Award and the Award of Excellence winners will be announced at the Thoth Award’s program on Thursday, September 25th. Did you enter PRSA’s National Silver Anvil or Bronze Anvil Awards program?
