The activities in Tampa [during the Super Bowl] were a huge success and our clients were thrilled. Thank you again for making sure we could use our street teams throughout the city…the program would not have done nearly as well without the ability to roam the streets.

Thank you so much for everything last week in New York. It was a great event and we could not have done it without you. We loved the decals on the streets and our position in the park couldn't have been better. Thank you for everything and hope to see you soon.

Just wanted to update you with how helpful and resourceful Tom has been with the advancement of the Nokia Invitational event. He has helped secure $60K plus of free dirt, used his connections in securing location and permits and a number of other areas of our event. Promotions USA is the meaning of a strategic partner and I understand why we have aligned our company so closely with him. Thanks for all your help Tom.

Not only was the Criss Angel Mindfreak event practically flawless (couldn't you control the weather?), but everyone at GMR and even the external teams you contracted were so professional and wonderful to work with. It's rare that you work with a group of people where everyone truly likes everyone else. We look forward to working on more projects with you going forward and hmmm…what will Criss do for Season 4?

Awesome event! I happened to catch one of the cut aways on GMA and you couldn't have asked for better PR for Weber or for a better executed event.
Nice work everyone! By the way, after the judging is completed, who gets the leftovers?

Our event yesterday for Weber Grills in Times Square (the final grilling competition covered by Good Morning America), as well as our Satellite Media Tour event on Wednesday aboard the Intrepid, were absolutely outstanding!
What an amazing program and team effort! During GMA yesterday, there were four live cut-ins to/from our event on Military Island across from the GMA studio with the last shot including Charlie Gibson, Diane Sawyer and Robin Roberts.

I just returned from NYC where we had our Spicy Chicken kick off event. Tom Hennigan pulled off a NYC miracle, he managed to secure a permit to block off a bus lane on 42nd street, directly in front of McDonald's, so we could park the McD SUV, radio station SUV and Ronald McDonald truck. The really cool part of this story is that during the pre-production meeting the day before the event the security director for McDonald's informed us, in front of 5 other agencies and 20 people, there was absolutely no way GMR could park vehicles in front of the event - they had already looked into it. She was dead-set determined about us not being able to park there!! Attached is a photo of our vehicle parked in front of McDonald's on 42nd street, we were parked from 2pm to 9:30pm. It was an awesome event!!

Congratulations to everyone on the Venus Divine Legs of a Goddess Mobile Tour 2004 team who helped make the July 28th Times Square Legs of a Goddess Contest an overwhelming success. This high profile event - hosted by A-listers Hillary and Haley Duff, Chris Judd and America's Next Top Model - gave pierce the opportunity to showcase our event management capabilities to our client Gillette, Porter Novelli, Omnicom, various media, and, quite literally, the world.
This event also gave pierce the chance to work with event expert Tom Hennigan. We are grateful to Tom and his team for their unfailing dedication, professionalism, and the way they tapped into their outstanding relationships with everyone from the NYPD Security to a graphics guy out in Jersey at 2 A.M. the morning of the event, to help us succeed. We hope this is the beginning of a great relationship between our team and his.
Congratulations everyone for a job extremely well done!

Wanted to thank each of you for the invaluable roles you played in bringing the Planters Famously Fresh Shot program to life. This program was most definitely a group effort.

I've been involved in hundreds of events over the years. When the coals die down and the excitement is over, I usually come up with five or ten things that I wished we had done better or differently. Well the coals have died down and the grills are packed up from this morning's event and I can't think if a single thing that could have been done better or more professionally. On behalf of every Weber associate, I thank you and commend you for an extraordinary performance and a job well done.
