Moffly Family to Receive FCPRA Charter Oak Award at Fairfield County Public Relations Association Annual Meeting luncheon. The event is open to the public.
The Charter Oak Award is given to a communications executive or journalist who has made a difference in their industry and the wider world. It is a way for FCPRA to honor individuals who demonstrate an uncommon excellence in their craft; sometimes in a less public role, sometimes more prominently.
We are pleased to honor The Moffly Family (Jack, Donna and Jonathan) with the Fairfield County Public Relations Association Charter Oak Award for 2010. Since 1963, Moffly Media has maintained the relevance of print media while also embracing new technology to meet the changing needs of its readership. Despite the readership retention challenges presented to publishers by the rapid development of the Internet, the Moffly family has been able to adapt to dramatic changes in the print publishing industry and continue to elevate its presence in lower Fairfield County. Today, the company produces five award-winning regional titles: Greenwich, Westport, Stamford, AtHome and New Canaan • Darien magazines.
Jeffrey Fager, the executive producer of CBS TV’s iconic “60 Minutes,” was the first recipient of the Charter Oak in 2007. Ian Kerr received the award in 2008, and The New York Times' David Pogue was last year's recipient.
In addition to the presentation of the Charter Oak Award, FCPRA will elect is officers and board for the year 2010/11 and also vote on revised bylaws as required. Members of FCPRA may download the proposed bylaws at www.fcpra.org. Floor nominations will be accepted at the meeting.
