Semaphore Conducts SCSU Media Training
On February 4th, Semaphore conducted media training with top administrators from South Carolina State University. Participants in the training, part of the SCSU Administrative Team Retreat, heard tips on how to prepare for media interviews and how to conduct themselves in interviews to achieve maximum effect for the desired message. Select SCSU staff members practiced simulated interview situations and were critiqued on their responses. Team members left the event with printed notes of all points discussed.
Good News for The Salvation Army
Recently, Semaphore completed the layout and first issue - Winter 2006 - of The Good News, the new newsletter of The Salvation Army of the South Carolina Midlands. To be mailed to area constituents five times yearly, the newsletter details the Salvation Army's programs, fundraising initiatives, and reports on the folks that support The Army as volunteers, donors, and board members. The Winter 2006 issue commemorates The Salvation Army's 100th year of service to the South Carolina Midlands.
