As the hot summer months come to a close, I hope you have taken time to vacation on a nice beach. The summer has been a busy time for TMI. Although the bass were small, the marketing effort for the CITGO Bassmaster Classic certainly was not. Thanks to all the participants who made the event such a success. The 84 Lumber Classic also had another outstanding year drawing over 200,000 people.

We look forward to the opportunity to serve you in the near future.

Sincerely,
Taylor G. Abbett
President

We would like to extend a warm welcome to our newest clients: Landscape Architectural Services, Inc., Gray Enterprises, and Tim Condron Florist.

We would also like to thank our summer interns, Mya Anderson and Rachela Villella, for all their hard work and support.

Congratulations to the success of the CITGO Bassmaster Classic that was held in Pittsburgh this summer. The event had about 80,000 spectators and our website received over 1.4 million hits.

"We're impressed with what transpired [July 23-31]. It was one of our most successful Classics ever. That makes Pittsburgh inviting. It makes for intriguing potential," said Dean Kessel, vice president of operations for BASS, which is owned by ESPN.

“From the tremendous weekend viewership to the record-breaking attendance at Mellon Arena, the 2005 CITGO Bassmaster Classic was a great success,” said Christine Godleski, vice president and general manager of ESPN Outdoors. “The city of Pittsburgh was a fantastic host for all of our Classic activities and we are thrilled with the results we received.”
