For awhile there I wasn't able to access my blog. Zounds! So how could I update everyone on what's been shaking at Picante?
Much of July/August was spent working very hard on a large new business pitch for Tourism Saskatoon. Despite putting together an amazing presentation (even if I do say so myself) we unfortunately were not successful. We certainly know we gave it our all - but it was not to be. Rumour has it we made it to the last two ....and lost out to a rather large Toronto agency. So, we still feel we can hold our heads high - and we sure know we would have done a great job for them. Of course we wish them well. My deepest thanks to Kath, Lori, Eric and Ken who really came through for me putting in hours and hours of work. And thanks to our cheering section...we had a lot of people rooting for us and it meant a lot.
Onward and upward.
Two recent events I wanted to mention here. Kaydee Deremiens from Sunrise Credit Union and I enjoyed a fabulous Banjo Bowl together watching the Bombers kick the Riders. (Bombers haven't been doing so well lately I'm afraid.

And some special clients Mark and his wife Connie from the Winnipeg Police Service and John and Jamie from Grant Park Shopping Centre, joined Allan and I for the Grape Stomp fundraiser at Mona Lisa Ristorante. Funds were being raised for the Human Rights Museum.
We had a most exceptional time.
Keeping busy with Sunrise and Grant Park Christmas and we have another new business pitch we're
working on. The Massage Therapists are back on the air with their television campaign and the Police spots will be back on in early October. We won't launch the new ones til February. We have a really groovy campaign running right now in nfl football on City TV for McNaught Cadillac.So things are hummmmmmming along.
