Last night we donned our finest fine finery and hobnobbed with the T-Wolves. Taste of the Timberwolves is an annual gala to raise money for the FastBreak Foundation, the Wolves’ youth community program, and we were lucky enough to be invited. Hosted at the Target Center, we played meet and greet while noshing on tasty snacks from area restaurants. There was a silent auction loaded with goodies and the live auction included such prizes as a road trip with the team or an afternoon fishing with Nikola Pekovic. The players were gracious, the food was delicious and good times were had by all. Now we’re just excited to hear the results of how much funding the event raised for Minnesota kids. Mike practicing his benevolent face, Chris practicing his happy face and Mitch…. well, we’re not sure what Mitch is thinking. A quick sales meeting before the gala. Todd looks happy to be bidding at the live auction. Er, wait – that’s because he’s using Tricia’s bid card! Our sales team never gets a break – they’re always networking. Ricky giving the coach some pointers. Tricia and…a really tall guy who plays ball… In line for the Wheel O’ Prizes! Ricky wanted Ricky’s autograph but we said we don’t let our sales guys sign autographs unless they’re on ADS-branded merchandise… Getting a little...

Anybody who is anybody was at Brunswick on Thursday night, for the fourth annual ADS Group Bowling Tournament. Our office staff faced off against our operations staff in two games of cut throat bowling with absolutely no smack talk because we are mature professionals. The Warriors (operations) and the Blu Rays (office) quickly established their dominance and clinched title spots. After a quick break to stuff our faces with sliders, we cheered like maniacs during the championship game. We’d like to tell you it was a nail-biter. It was not. The operations team smoked the office team, which may or may not have earned them three trophies out of the total four since this event’s inception. But we’re not bitter. If anyone knows what our operations team is capable of, it’s our office staff. Without operations, we’d have nothing to sell, nothing to invoice and the phones wouldn’t ring. So hats off to the Warriors, for representing operations as the 2012 Championship Team. And next year? The office is totally taking that trophy back. Seriously. We mean it this...
