Planning PR Events during Homecoming

This week for Georgia College & State University is Homecoming 2010. For the past several weeks, Myself and my Pr Team at the college radio station, WGUR 88.9FM The Edge, have been working on our float for the 2010 parade through downtown Milledgeville, as well as tailgate events at the Sean Kingston and MUTEMATH concert tomorrow night and the Basketball games Saturday afternoon. I have learned this week that it is essential to have a team helping you when you are planning and executing an event. Without the help of others for manpower, idea bouncing, and simply spreading the word about the event, the event will not go smoothly or be successful. You cannot do everything by yourself, and you need others to lean on. Event planning can be very stressful and you need others around you that you can count on to get the job done. I have also been helping the current SGA Vice-President with the concert decorations and everything that encompasses the VIP area in the Centennial Center. The job has been very stressful on her due to the fact that she does not have a committee helping her. I realized that the use of others is vital to not only the events themselves, but for your own sanity.
