The Catholic Press Association met in Denver in mid-June for its annual convention and awards for excellence.
The Georgia Bulletin earned six awards. It's very flattering to read the comments given by the judges. We are pleased to get the recognition but more importantly we are pleased to share the news of the Catholic community in the 69 counties of North Georgia.
