A great organization for all PR students to get involved in is The Social Media Club of Cache Valley (SMCCV). It is a new organization in Logan that allows members to learn more about the concepts of social media through guest speakers and panel discussions.
The club meets on the second Thursday of every month at different locations around Logan. Businesses that are willing to offer a venue receive free publicity since members of the group Facebook, blog, and tweet about their experiences.
Individuals of all knowledge and experience levels are welcome to attend meetings and become a member of SMCCV.
The next meeting will be held Thursday September, 10 at 6:30 p.m. at Club New York, located at 359 N. Main St. in Logan. Loralle Choate will be speaking about being discovered by the White House based on her personal blog entries on health care. Choate will be taking questions and discussing how to improve a blog. Approximately 50 to 80 people are expected to attend.
The Social Media Club of Cache Valley is a local chapter of a global organization that began three years ago and is headquartered in San Francisco. Parker and three colleagues started the Cache Valley chapter in July 2009 after attending a Salt Lake chapter meeting in Jan. 2009. The club began with three members, but has expanded to 27 official members according to the SMCCV website at http://www.smccv.net/
