Manitou Springs, CO
Manitou Springs was shocked to learn their high school was targeted by the Westboro Baptist Church (WBC), known for blistering protests against the gay community, celebrating soldiers’ funerals, and a long history of suing for any infringement of their free speech. Equally concerning was the potential counter-
protestors’ response in an open carry state. M&C Communications developed a proactive school, community, and media communications strategy to promote a safe protest/counter-protest while honoring 1st Amendment rights.
2020 PRSA Silver Anvil Award
Rocky Ford Growers Association
Longtime Coloradans and some members of the local media remember the listeria issue of 2011, which wasn't caused by Rocky Ford Cantaloupe but was associated with the Rocky
Ford name.
M&C partnered with RFGA to correct the association between its melons and listeria through positive coverage of the Association’s food safety protocols, family farms, stewardship, and quality.

"After researching the field of local public relations firms, we decided on M&C Communications as our public relations partner for the launch of Urban Putt, an indoor miniature golf course/restaurant/bar in Downtown Denver. We could not be happier with the results: Sarah, Diane, and the team immediately grasped what we were trying to do, put together an integrated plan of attack, and helped us crystallize our pitch. I was impressed with their ability to leverage deep connections with key players in the Denver media scene to create buzz around Urban Putt. They also showed tremendous flexibility, adjusting on the fly to the changes, delays, and unexpected challenges that invariably crop up when doing an ambitious launch. Another big plus: They are just plain fun to work with." - Steve Fox, Chief Greenskeeper, Urban Putt
