Best
of Texas 2006 Winners
The Best of Texas Awards recognize outstanding achievement
using individual communications tools in support of specific
public relations objectives. A winning Best of Texas entry
demonstrates superior use of the communications tool employed
and documents that the rationale and execution led to desired
results in support of a specific public relations objective.
Silver and Bronze Awards may be given in each Best of Texas
category. In addition, Certificates of Merit may be awarded.
Judges may grant multiple Silver, Bronze or Certificates of
Merit in any category if entries are determined to be equally
meritorious.
