We've gotten to know Big Al over the past couple years through our work with Zoo Knoxville and their efforts to bring the Clayton Family Amphibian and Reptile Conservation (ARC) campus into reality. Who are we to argue the wisdom of a 150 year-old tortoise? Love you, big guy! 😍

It was whirlwind getting Shade Savers to market, but awesome to see the reception they received at the PGA Merchandise Show. Thanks to the Golf Channel for the shout out among some other great brands. Check 'em out and !

What a few months its been! We've been working with the Zoo Knoxville development and marketing teams on the plan and materials for the publicly-facing phase of its Dream Wilder Capital Campaign.

Today, the zoo provided an update about the project that will be its crown jewel -- the Clayton Family Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Campus -- or the ARC, for short.

Zoo Knoxville’s herpetology team is ranked among the top in the country, and is internationally acclaimed for its expertise and work to save critically endangered amphibians and reptiles. But, only 10% of these animals are on view in the current, aging facility. The use of the ARC acronym for the new campus is a reflection of the role Zoo Knoxville has as a modern day “ark,” and the work being done to save animals from extinction. You'll be able to see them ALL in the new exhibit!

Everyone is invited to help Zoo Knoxville ! The campaign has raised $36.5M to date, and there's $2.5M to go. Visit www.BuildTheARC.com to learn how you can help. Can't wait to share more updates and progress!

It was our honor to assist with the marketing behind this campaign. Congratulations to the Knoxville Jewish Alliance for reaching your goal and providing a state-of-the-art environment for the students at the AJCC Preschool!

Thank you! We reached our goal! As of June 2, the Project Playground fundraiser has raised $91,146.73. This includes contributions and brick pavers, the Brown Family match, and the Preschool Art Gala proceeds from 2018 and 2019. All excess funds over cost will be utilized to establish a KJCFF Fund for the preschool playground that will hopefully keep our playground refurbished for our posterity. Thank you to all who helped make this dream a reality!

We knew this would be the best new event Knoxville has seen in a long time. And we couldn't have ordered better weather! Congratulations to Lakeshore Park on a beautiful evening, top to bottom. It was a true pleasure to be a partner and helping this become reality. Can't wait for Summer Picnic 2020!
