Board Elections: MFCP is currently conducting elections to fill three open seats on our Board of Directors. This year's nominees are Joyce Frericks of Star Publications (Minnesota), Julia Thompson of Southern Minnesota Shoppers, Inc. (Minnesota), and Mindy Carter of Richland Center (Wisconsin). Each member publication receives one vote, and an email with voting instructions was sent to the publisher on record earlier this month. If you haven't already cast your ballot, you may do so using the link below. Please remember—the deadline to vote is December 12, 2025.
MVP Nominations: As you wrap up your year, we also encourage you to consider nominating a rising star from your team for the MFCP Most Valued Professional (MVP) program. The MVP program recognizes emerging leaders who demonstrate strong character, professionalism, and a dedication to advancing within the free paper industry. Up to five individuals will be selected for 2026, receiving recognition in Paperclips and complimentary registration and hotel accommodations for the MFCP Conference and Trade Show. You can review the nomination form and details at the link below. The nomination deadline is January 30, 2026.
