Media electronic newsletter wins national award
The Media Borough Monthly eNews has been named a Second Place Winner in the eNewsletter category in the National Association of Government Communicators Blue Pencil and Gold Screen Awards program which recognizes superior government communication products and those who produce them. NAGC named the 2019 award winners at the NAGC 2019 Communications School in Sterling, Virginia
(https://nagc.com/2019-communications-school/), the only event of its kind that provides invaluable networking opportunities and practical educational sessions to help government agency communicators enhance engagement with citizens and stakeholders. The Blue Pencil & Gold Screen awards competition opens at the end of November each year. Professional communicators are judges from around the country who volunteer their time and talent to team up and judge the categories.
The Media Borough monthly eNews is a digital emailed newsletter with a reach of over 16,000 people per month. In 2018, Media Borough recognized a need to enhance communications with residents and visitors and to share information about borough improvements, news and events. For many years, the borough distributed a twice-yearly newsletter while maintaining a website, Facebook page, and Twitter feed. These tasks seem small but can sometimes be overwhelming for smaller government organizations. While local municipal information was shared in earnest, it was often difficult for residents to find and failed to reach much of its intended audience. With its current rate of growth, the Media Borough Council knew they needed to inform a growing population more effectively.
With the newsletter’s growth, participation in community events has increased. Most importantly the Media eNewsletter gets government news out in a timely manner so that residents can stay updated on the happenings in Media Borough.
