What happened to November?

There is just so much activity humming in the ol' Picanteria. Several interesting projects that we really care deeply about.

Massage Therapy commercials are nearly complete. Thanks to Sue, Wayne, Pauline and Kaleigh for doing a great job in front of the camera. And Keith, Don and Conroy for doing a great job behind.

Started on the new Versatech Industries video. Had a nice interview/visit with Bob Brennan, CEO of Manitoba Hydro who graciously welcomed us into his Boardroom. He's a big fan of Versatech and the opportunities they provide to Adults with Intellectual Disabilities. Then we visited the Versatech production workshop and were inspired by the warmth and enthusiasm of the workers there. More interviews and shooting next week.

We continue to progress nicely on materials for the Edwards School of Business Role Model Campaign. It's getting so close to the unveiling - we're so excited. Branding continues for the new credit union and we have some fun ideas for the Saskatchewan Credit Unions Annual General Meeting materials. Looking forward to showing it to you Tim!

We presented new creative (and we're now able to proudly announce our success in winning the contract over 8 other agencies) to the City of Winnipeg Police Department. This is a very exciting new campaign for us - and we made a number of presentations to senior staff this week including Chief of Police Keith McCaskill. So far it's thumbs up all the way and we can't say enough about the team over at the Police Department. They are so committed to the project and to Picante and have impressed us with their sincerity and enthusiasm. Big thanks to Mark, Steve, Kerry, Randy, James and all the gang over at the Public Safety Building. It's comforting to know guys like that are looking after the safety of the citizens of Winnipeg.

We finished off the week at a photo shoot for Teen Touch. Calling on the support of family members, Shea, Bree, Teneille and Kyle, as well as our good friends, teachers Mary Brogan and Martin Riley, we gathered 10 teens on their day off downtown early on Friday morning. Teen Touch campaign materials will be ready soon and we can't wait to share them. Thanks Kelly for the privilege of working on this important campaign...and thanks to Shaun, Amanda and Cherrie for your chauferring services - nothing like expanding those job descriptions when your work for Picante!
