Simon's band opens for The Tragically Hip

Simon's band just played the concert of a lifetime. On June 21, Five Star Trailer Park opened for the Tragically Hip at the Big Music Fesival in Belleville.

There were several other great acts on the bill including Attack in Black, Sarah Harmer and Sam Roberts. Five Star played a fabulous set in front of fans who had gathered on this enormous lawn at Zwicks Park. A once in a lifetime experience, no doubt.

Take a peak at the pics from the event.

Our new home



After 3 months of planning, designing, construction and project managing, our new office space is ready.

This has actually been about 1.5 years in the making when we started the search for a new space that would truly define who we were as a company. After countless tours of the downtown core, we decided to overhaul an empty space on the top floor of our existing building.

The space had a lot of potential - corner suite, flooded with natural light, and most importantly, a blank canvas to start with.

It was a pretty cool experience watching the suite morph from "bland grey fuzz" into a sleek new environment, completely custom built to our requirements as a promotion design firm.

Take a look at the pics (displayed in chronological order).

A special thanks to the entire team at RIGHTSLEEVE for making this happen (and particularly to Paul Gorrie, our architect, and Will Dempsey, our ever patient real estate agent).
