Sometimes a check isn’t sufficient thanks for tasks performed. Now that the 2006 Shell Houston Open is behind us, I want to personally thank you for the stellar work you performed that helped us step to a new level. Your work and counsel on the re-designs of both of our web sites www.shellhoustonopen.com and www.hga.org have paid dividends for us. We continue to receive compliments from other PGA TOUR events about the look and feel of our sites.

I want to especially thank you for your work ethic. I realize we didn’t exactly give you an abundance of time on some of our projects. Hopefully, we can do things in 2007 at a bit more leisurely pace.

This letter is long overdue. I showed some of our friends at Shell Oil Company a few of the invoices for the very creative print projects you did for us when you officed at Rhino Marketing. It proved to them that outstanding work doesn’t have to come from a large shop, nor does it have to cost a fortune. We look forward to doing more projects with you in 2007.

Let’s get together soon for lunch. And this time will you please let me pick up the tab? Thanks again for all of your effort on the part of the Shell Houston Open and Houston Golf Association.

Sincerely,
BURT DARDEN
Director of Communications
