RBFF Receives Two Gold Circle Awards

Colle McVoy client the Recreational Boating & Fishing Foundation (RBFF) won two ASAE 2019 Gold Circle Awards, which denote excellence, innovation and achievement in association/nonprofit marketing, membership and communications programs. RBFF is the only organization to win more than one award at ASAE’s 2019 Marketing, Membership & Communications Conference last week.

RBFF received awards in the Media/Public Relations Campaign category for its Shattering the “Bass Ceiling”: Moving an Industry to Get Moms Hooked on Fishing and Boating initiative, as well as in the Video category for its Women Making Waves video, the focal point of the initiative. RBFF and its Take Me Fishing™ brand produced the initiative in conjunction with Colle McVoy and Exponent PR to make women feel more welcome on the water, empowering them to lead the next generation of anglers. The video features powerful taglines paired with strong women, moms and girls, all enjoying their time on the water.
