Anoka-Ramsey Community College earned two Medallion Awards from the National Council of Marketing & Public Relations (NCMPR). The awards were presented at the Districts 3 and 5 Conference earlier this month in Madison, Wisconsin. 

The college received a gold award for its redesign of AnokaRamsey.edu and bronze for the campaign supporting the 2025 Rhythm of the Rapids event. 

"I am incredibly proud of our marketing and communications team for earning this recognition," says Mary McCarthy, chief marketing and communications officer for Anoka-Ramsey. "This group brings together strategic thinking, creativity, technical expertise and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Whether enhancing the digital experience for prospective students through our website redesign or promoting signature events such as Rhythm of the Rapids, this team continues to produce exceptional results that elevate the college and strengthen our connection to the communities we serve."

District 5 Medallion Awards recognize excellence in marketing and communications at community and technical colleges across Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, the Canadian province of Manitoba, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands.
