FreeThink: Stop and Smell the Rosey's

Stop and Smell the Rosey's

Last week Jen Scott and I hit up the Portland Advertsting Federation's Rosey Awards at the Newmark Theater. There was a lot of fun to be had between reconnecting with old colleagues, former classmates and current friends -- not to mention sweet sippy cups for us to haul our free drink(s) around with!

Maxwell didn't enter any awards ourselves, but we certainly couldn't help but be impressed by all the fantastic creative work that goes on around town. Big winners that night included Borders Perrin Norrander, Leopold Ketel and Nemo Design, among many other worthy agencies.

Other highlights included the length of show (one hour -- pretty dang good in the world of award shows!), genuinely funny announcers (check out this clip in particular) and, seriously, the comraderie among the audience members -- everyone seemed to be rooting for everyone.

Hopefully we'll see everyone again for the next "Showdown in Stumptown."

	This spirited, open forum by Maxwell PR staff members, studio mates and colleagues features people who are, in our opinion, doing the right things to get people talking. You'll see us rave about organizations building communities and rant about those who are missing obvious opportunities. We sprinkle in a little marketing and PR rhetoric from time to time for extra vigor and enthusiasm, and will share observations and insight based on our own experience honing our craft every day.
