I just finished a wonderful presentation by Weber Shandwick Minneapolis to a group of non-profits Executives, Board Members and Volunteers at the University of Saint Thomas. The Keynote Speaker was Bill Hudson, Reporter WCCO-TV. In addition to the the team from Weber Shandwick, the Non-Profits a number of students at the University of Saint Thomas' PRSSA and members of the UST Public Relations Student Society of America.

I'll state it again, this was an excellent presentation and well moderated. It was my first time, but Weber Shandwick provides this instructional session to Non-Profits every year. I was attending in my role as a Board Member of East Side Learning Center.
The discussions were lively and informative. I'm extremely happy that I had the opportunity to attend and I took away a lot of information which will be helpful to ESLC.
Thanks to Andy & Katie who worked with us in the Consulting Session.
