A letter from Councillor Fred Borg,
of Campbelltown City Council:
I write to thank A Red Letter Day Event Management
for the brilliant service they have provided to the Youth
of Macarthur. I speak as a local government Councillor and
also as Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce. Our community
owes A Red Letter Day a debt of gratitude for excellent
work and accomplishment.
In 1999, when I decided to contest the
Council Election, part of my platform was to develop opportunities
for Youth and also for Elite Sport in this region. Having
four children and eight grand children, and having lived
here for 40 years, I was very much aware that talent in
Macarthur was not getting the recognition or encouragement
it deserved.
Working with local businesses and people such as Federal
MP Pat Farmer, a decision was made to enlist the help of
a professional team - that being A Red Letter Day
- to develop an event that would open up opportunities for
local bands and musicians. Talks led to the involvement
of local FM Radio Station C91.3 and The Macarthur Advertiser,
and strategies put into place by A Red Letter Day,
swiftly resulted in the kickoff of an extremely important,
large and highly successful Contest, called Clash!
Following six weeks lead up work, A Red Letter Day
produced a thirteen week program, underwriting the event
and covering all aspects of it development and management.
A Red Letter Day took care of promotion, sponsorship,
sourcing of prizes,staffing, ticketing, all contestant liaison,
production of the weekly shows and communications. They
worked well with the Clash! Committee, and were financially
responsible. Forty bands and thirty soloists got massive
exposure and great prizes through Clash!
Thank you to A Red Letter Day from Councillor Fred
Borg and the Youth of Campbelltown LGA.
A Letter from Peter and Deborah Cook,
Wamberal, NSW :
Dennis and Clare Burgess, A Red Letter Day
We are very pleased to provide this testimonial to your
skills as the creators and organisers of unique and memorable
'events'.
You have treated us to some truly remarkable and breathtaking
Birthday surprises over the years, which clearly demonstrate
your passion, ability and aptitude for creating innovative
and original ways to celebrate special occasions.
We recall one time when you had told us to pack a bag for
a weekend away, and to be ready at 7pm on the Friday evening.
On the dot of seven, you videotaped us as we were whisked
off by two Harley Davidson riders, driven over the Harbour
Bridge and then back through the Tunnel to meet you (and
our luggage) at the Suntory Restaurant in the city. After
a fabulous dinner, we were picked up by a 1926 stretch cadillac,
and driven to a house you had rented in the Blue Mountains
for the weekend. A picnic and tour of Norman Lindsay's house
at Springwood the next day, was followed by a home-cooked
meal and games night. On the Sunday, we had coffee at the
Hydro-Majestic, and we had stopped to wonder about how we
would return home to Sydney. We would never have guessed
that a helicopter awaited us!
Other amazing Birthdays planned by you for us, have also
always left us feeling incredibly special. There is endlessly
thoughtful and thorough planning involved, with special
touches like Options Books, were any path can be taken during
the weekend at our own whim. From seaplanes to circuses,
surprise gatherings of special friends, morning tea with
Athena Starwoman, and visits to Brett Whiteley's studio,
as well as a seemingly endless array of perfect gifts sprinkled
throughout the experience, your expertise never ceases to
astound!
The important thing is that you carefully consider the guest
of honour, and personalise the event or outing for them.
Your creativity is boundless. You are meticulous and professional
in every way. We are very pleased that you use your talents
and expertise to help people organise their celebrations.
Your kind natures and creative flair assists your clients
to stage events that will be talked about for years to come.
