ADDY Success!

Ralph Gabbard Television Excellence Award
Highlights Oscar-Style Event

According to the noted philosopher, Meat Loaf, "Two Out of Three Ain't Bad." 11 out of 12, then, must be pretty good. And 11 out of 12 is the rate of success for AD-SUCCESS clients in the ADDY awards presentations, held Friday, January 20, at Marriott's Griffin Gate Resort, in Lexington.

This year, AD-SUCCESS submitted entries for an even dozen clients, and 11 of those clients showed up on the list of winners. At the end of the evening, AD-SUCCESS had collected the prestigious Ralph Gabbard Television Excellence Award, 3 Gold ADDY statuettes, 10 Silver awards, and 6 Bronze. Entry categories included annual reports, brochures, in-house magazines, direct mail and specialty items, TV, radio, and print media advertising.

The annual awards show, staged by the Lexington Advertising Club and sanctioned by the American Advertising Federation, is the first tier of a national competition that recognizes creative excellence and effectiveness in advertising. The theme for the 2006 event was "Lights, Camera, ADDYs," and the Academy Awards-style program will be presented on Lexington's WLEX-TV on Saturday, January 28, at 8:00p.m.
