CAs of Ontario

On behalf of the institute and its functions advisory group, many thanks for doing such a splendid job in helping to make Saturday evening a memorable occasion for this year’s graduates and their spouses / guests as well as a few of their family members. I think the move upstairs as a great move, as the compliments were and are still pouring in about your band. Please mark next year’s date in your calendar. As always Damian, it has been a pleasure working with you and your band. You guys are the best. Hope you all had a great time. Looking forward to working with you again next year.

Yours Truly,

Patricia Fleming

Theatre Collingwood

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Theatre Collingwood, I’d like to thank New Hollywood ONCE AGAIN for making our major fundraising event a fabulous success! New Hollywood has now been the cornerstone entertainment of our “Fall Fundraising Ball” for five consecutive seasons. The committee praises the energy, quality, professionalism and flexibility of the band. Our broad demographic mix spans 20 to 70 year olds, but each season, the attendees comment on what a fantastic selection of music New Hollywood offered. From the moment the band began to the last dance, the dance floor was always packed. Exhaustion was the only reason people took a break. After all these years, we embrace you as part of our team. It is a pleasure having you entertain our theatre crowd.

Our sincere thanks and best wishes for a great year,

Irene Thomas

Campbell’s Soup

You and the band where a ‘hit’ at our STAR Awards Gala on Saturday, October 1 at the Mississauga Living Arts Centre. You enlivened the show with your great musical talent and your ‘Voice of God’ introductions. Thanks for working ‘on the fly’ by adding songs where time permitted. You are true professionals! We’ll be sure to call you as soon as we have next years date.

Dear Damian,

It was such a pleasure to work with you while planning for the 10th Anniversary Share a Little Magic Gala. The guests filled the dance floor all night long which demonstrated how year after year you are able to put on a great party.

On behalf of our children, thank-you for “sharing a little magic” with us. We truly hope you had an enjoyable evening and look forward to working with you on future events.

Sincerely,

The Events Team

Damian,

Just wanted to send you a big thank you for doing such a fabulous job at my parent’s anniversary party. It is true that a good band really makes a difference and you guys were great. Everyone, and I mean everyone, made it a point to tell us how great you were and kept asking us how we found you. My father was still talking about it the next day. We especially appreciated the fact that you felt out the crowd and played the music that you could tell people wanted to hear. It was great to see everyone, regardless of the age, dancing for two and a half hours straight, Hope you guys enjoyed seeing everyone have a good time. Thanks so much for doing such a great job. You made everything painless and stress-free for me right from the beginning and you really made the party. Best of luck in the future, and if I ever need to plan a party again, or have any friends doing the same, I hope you guys are available.

GlaxoSmithKline

To Whom It May Concern,

As BRAVO manages over 300 GlaxoSmithKline events annually, it is critical to establish sound relationships with many third-party suppliers in the travel and incentive industry. New Hollywood has been our preferred entertainment supplier since 2001. They have successfully produced four functions at Blue Mountain for GlaxoSmithKline and have secured a solid reputation with our colleagues and clients. They have been personally requested by senior GSK management; their music compilations are customized to the programs and offer an interesting, upbeat mix of entertainment. They provide consistent service and programs are delivered in an expedient, professional manner. We would highly recommend New Hollywood for any type of function.

Sincere Regards,

Dianna Gimza-Piercey

Addison Leasing

Dear New Hollywood.

I just wanted to let you know what a great time was had by all at our Christmas Party. Our four groups, Addison On Bay, Addison On Dundas, Addison Leasing and Meadow Mills have been together for our Christmas party for the past three years. We are usually a tough crowd to get up on the dance floor and the party is generally slow with the exceptions on a few party animals. This year I cannot believe the difference. The dance floor was packed from the very first note played and everyone was a party animal this year. The music was fantasic; it had a bit of everything which suited our crowd. I cannot remember as many compliments on the band as I have had this year. I have been planning our parties for 21 years and it is such a pleasure to hear nothing but good comments on the entertainment. I had a call from the President, Mr. Addison on Monday morning asking me to book you again for next year.

Thank you so much for making our party the great success that it was. Looking forward to seeing you again next year.

Yours truly,

Valerie Drohan

Zoological Society

Dear Damian,

All 900 guests at Zoo Do Vill, The Outback Down Under are still raving about New Hollywood. In fact they are asking for an encore next year! It was a pleasure working with New Hollywood and through Crossroads we will let you know soon about the date for next year. It is traditionally the first of second Thursday in June. Many thanks for contributing to the success of our fundraiser.

Yours Very Truly,

United Way

Dear Damian:

The Proctor & Gamble Leaps and Bounds for United Way was a huge success, thanks to your generous support. Our 19th annual campaign launch hosted over 13,000 runners and walkers raising $340,000 (and we’re still counting!). This was a big leap towards our goal of $74.8 million.

All funds raised go to support our 200 agencies in providing social and health services to more than one million people in Toronto. Leaps and Bounds is more than just members. The banners and balloons, families and individuals, agencies and workplaces, people of all ages and from all neighbourhoods, enthusiasm and energy – this is the true spirit of United Way. Not only a hugely successful fundraiser, the event symbolizes our role, connecting people in a common cause of caring. Leaps and Bounds in United Way, and United Way is our community. Damian, we received a lot of compliments about this year’s entertainment, thanks to you and the rest of the volunteers who agreed to help us out.

Thank you once again for your support of the Proctor & Gamble Leaps and Bounds for United Way. Truly, without you, there would be no way!

Yours Sincerely,

Lisa McAuliffe

Dear Damian:

On behalf of Triple I Event Services Inc., I would like to take this opportunity in thanking yourself and your band for the wonderful work you have provided this year. From Mardi Gras theme events to Millenium your band added the right chemistry for my events to be 150%. Customers such as Nortel from various divisions, Gowling Strathy and Henderson a law firm, Semiconductor Insights 10th Anniversary, and Entrust Technologies. The feedback was tremendous! From an Event Coordinators point of view, I appreciate your professionalism, your personality, your ability for change if needed, and of course, you and your band can get whatever group up in the first dance.

Here is to a new Millenium, and New Hollywood continues to be on Triple I Event Services Inc. roster.

You simply are the best!

Thank you and Best Regards,

Carolyn Parker
