Congratulations on achieving this great honor! Once you and your family and friends finish celebrating, please make note of the following information that will come in handy in the coming months.

Save the Date

First and foremost, mark your calendar for the awards luncheon – and don’t forget to tell your friends, family members and colleagues.

2018 40 Under 40 Awards Luncheon
Georgia Aquarium – Oceans Ballroom
225 Baker Street NW | Atlanta, Georgia

Thursday, September 13, 2018
Doors: 11:30 a.m. | Luncheon: Noon

Some of UGA’s schools and colleges will host events the evening before, the morning of and immediately following the luncheon. More information about those networking opportunities will be shared as details are finalized.

Invitations

You will receive two complimentary seats at the luncheon. You will also have the opportunity to reserve a reduced-price table that includes your two complimentary seats. Start planning your entourage now – invitations will be mailed in early August and you will also receive an electronic invitation as well. If you already have your squad together, register for the luncheon.

Marketing

Next week, the UGA Alumni Association will disseminate a news release announcing this year’s class across university and social media outlets. In the meantime, you can download this customizable press release to send to your company, professional organizations, other alma maters and local media outlets. Please email Frances Beusse at fbeusse@uga.edu if you have any questions.

Gameday

We hope you will continue to celebrate with your alma mater through the weekend as the Bulldogs take on Middle Tennessee State University ‘tween the Hedges in Athens. You will have the opportunity to request two complimentary tickets to the game on Saturday, September 15. The tickets are for honorees only and are not transferrable. More details about this opportunity will be emailed to you as September approaches.

Get Social!

Please share this exciting news via your social media accounts and ask your family and friends to do the same – you deserve the recognition! You can download images for Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to share online. The hashtag below will be used all year, so plug it whenever you can.

Website

This is a group of movers and shakers! If your name, title, employer or city information is incorrect, or changes between now and the luncheon, email the Alumni Outreach office so it remains accurate on the 40 Under 40 website.
