I want to express my deepest appreciation to The AD Agency, and to you personally, for unflagging commitment and loyalty as the agency of record for the Washington Convention Center Authority. When I arrived in Washington, DC in 1997, one of the first things I did was hire an agency to help us transform a faltering organization into a model of achievement. The first year was one of many major accomplishments kicked off with the approval of the new center. One year later, we celebrated the groundbreaking of the new Washington Convention Center, a historic day in DC and one I am sure we will always remember. Along the way, you have provided invaluable assistance with launching our impeccable new logo, strong collateral materials and ensuring positive press coverage. With your help, we have continued to build on our initial success. We have now passed the halfway point of construction on the new center and our organization is playing an increasingly important role in the Washington Metropolitan Region. We appreciate your contribution as more than just a contractor, but as a friend to our organization. Debi, we would not be where we are today without you. I thank you and will refer your agency whenever the opportunity avails itself.
Lewis H. Dawley, III, General Manager and CEO, WCCA
