Ad2 Tampa Bay, a division of the American Advertising Federation, is a local organization consisting of young advertising/marketing professionals under the age of 32. On June 23rd a ceremony was held to install the incoming '05-'06 Board members.

Tampa, FL. (PRWEB) July 3, 2005 -- On the evening of Thursday, June 23rd, the incoming 2005-06 Ad 2 Tampa Bay Board of Directors held their installation at the Gold Dragon Gallery. The commencement was a combined ceremony with the Tampa Bay Advertising Federation and featured a wine tasting sponsored by Susan Cunningham of a Time for Wine.

This fresh group of faces hopes to continue in the footsteps of past boards and regain their title as the Ad 2 National Ad 2 Club of the Year. Leading the way is first time President, Vinny Tafuro who was awarded the Pinstripe Service Excellence Award for his service the previous year. Tafuro will be well prepared for the role as he spent the 04-05 year as the Vice President and Director of Fundraising. Under Tafuros leadership, the club was able to successfully raise over $18,000. Money raised is used, in part, to fund the Public Service Campaign which is a full-scale advertising campaign for a local charity, which the group of young professionals facilitates annually.
