Positively Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

It's October and the 4PR events team staged a 'Positively Pink' evening for client Methven who as a sponsor of the New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation wanted to share the spirit and message of 'Pink October' with their valued female clients. The evening presented an information seminar from NZBCF to push home the 'early detection is the best protection' and then in the spirit of women coming together for an evening there was a 'Shades of Pink' fashion show by renowned New Zealand designer and businesswoman, Annah Stretton. The beautiful pink designs were modelled by young talent from Catwalk Studios whilst guests enjoyed pink grapefruit juice and pink Sofia bubbles.

Magical Malaysia

Tracey Mehrtens takes part in a media famil to Malaysia and heads on location to some new hot spots in one of her favourite destinations......

"Talk about making good use of space. Who would have ever thought that an old quarry could be transformed into an entertainment mecca; complete with water theme park, zoo, mini-Disneyland fun park and huge hotel spilling down the side of the quarry. The flying fox that runs off to the right of this bridge at Sunway Lagoon Resort and Spa, just out of Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, whizzes over the giant wave pool depositing you ever nicely in front of a bar – a bottle of Tiger beer is a must after working up such a sweat!"

Devil of a good time in Tassie

On location magazine got a taste of Tassie - just in time for the October issue. Louise got up close and personal with the devils at cradle mountain and got into some great Tassie action which ranged from kayaking to hiking to indulging in fantastic food and wine! A land of beauty, bounty and balance....

Picking up the PAICE for New Caledonia

The 4PR events team picked up PAICE for New Caledonia operators at the annual Pacific Asia Incentive & Conference Expo held in August at Auckland's Eden Park in August. The carpeted stand area was transformed into a turqoise and white chic South Pacific scape complete with sandy fringe. Professional conference organisers and incentive organisers were treated to not only first hand information from the 8 visiting operators but also to tropical fresh fruit kebabs dunked in a white chocolate fountain - which like many visitors to the stand Tracey found too tempting to resist!

Footprints Network Media Launch 16 August

Leading tech, travel and business media gathered for a private luncheon at Pasha for the New Zealand launch of the Footprints Network www.footprints.org.au - the online ready made corporate social responsibility programme where every dollar in equates to every dollar out toward supporting a range of projects in impoverished countries around the world - and no, not a dollar of donor money was spent on lunch!
Now we can talk about lunch...Chef Simon Gault excelled himself with a sumptuous set menu that started with the ultimate VIP party icebreaker - licking a crazy combo of white chocolate mousse, heaped with caviar off your hand! A very grown up variation on the old lick, suck, sip Tequila concept....only far less toxic and far tastier.
Footprints is already talking to New Zealand e commerce providers to provide their customers with the opportunity to give a little change to make a big difference. The lunch was organised by 4PR together with Sydney affiliate agency S2i communications - see ww.S2i.com.au with a presentation by Simon Monk, Footprints Network Founder and Christy McCarthy Footprints Relationships Manager.
