The results
First prize goes to…
Flash forward to 2020, and Amélie-Anne is ready to win that prize she’s had her heart set on for so long.
“Now I know what I'm doing. And we have a great magazine. That was in the Spring of 2020, and unfortunately, we weren't able to travel for the CCAE conference. But they still held some conferences online.
“So I was at home alone, in front of my computer with my team across the city. Everyone was connected and waiting. They awarded the third position and then the second position. And then they suddenly switched to French and announced that the winner of the first position for Best Online Publication was Université de Moncton with our alumni magazine.
I literally screamed in my office! I was so, so, so proud of our team for accomplishing this. It was a great recognition, and it's been celebrated throughout the university. Our president was very proud to say that we got this award, and now it's displayed in my office for anyone to see that we got a gold medal for this online publication.
In the first year of switching to an online magazine, we even won an award which is a national Prix d’Excellence gold medal from CCAE, and it was our great pride and joy to receive this as a very small team from New Brunswick.”

Amélie-Anne has a good laugh about being a Foleon fan girl. “I’m very proud of this project and the brand,” she smiles. “Since day one, I have been telling everyone in the office that I should be wearing a Foleon shirt.” And, well, we agree.
