Registrations for the 2026 PEDA Fall Conference continue to be received and we hope to see you in Gettysburg later this month.


Today, we'd like to highlight a session of the conference entitled "Mike on the Mic: Turning Conversation into Community Impact", which will be led by Franklin County Area Development Corporation's President Mike Ross and Project Manager David Mackley (pictured from left to right). During this session, our presenters will discuss how their organization is using podcasting to bring real conversations to the forefront, connecting business leaders, community voices and regional issues in a way that’s accessible, authentic and engaging. More than a communications tactic, this session highlights how modern storytelling can amplify impact, offering a practical, relatable model for organizations looking to connect with broader audiences and tell their story in a new way.
