RCEN EARNS 2009 ABWA BEST PRACTICES AWARD

River City Express Network is proud to have been recognized by the American Business Women's Association as a "best practices" network for the 2008-2009 network year.

ABWA Executive Director Rene Street cited RCEN for the network's annual planning process and "clear, easy to understand and well thought out goals." She also commended RCEN programs, "outside the meeting" events and the network website.

The award was presented at the 2009 ABWA National Women's Leadership Conference September 26 in Kansas City, MO.

RCEN received the Best Practices/Diamond Award, ABWA's highest award for networks, in 2003, 2007, 2008 and 2009.

RCEN NEWSLETTER WINS 6th NATIONAL AWARD

The monthly newsletter of the River City Express Network received a national newsletter award at the ABWA National Women's Leadership Conference in Kansas City on September 26.

RCEN's newsletter received an average score of 97 (on a 100 point scale) from the three judges.
