2008 ADDY Awards

ADDY logo

The Sun Times wins FIVE!

The annual ADDY Awards ceremony was held at the Marriot Frenchman'sReef on March 15th, and man, did we have a good time!

Thirty-five ad agencies, design firms, and media companies from St. John, St. Thomas, and St. Croix submitted their best work from 2007.Gold Cover In addition to cleaning up rather well (if we do say so ourselves), the Sun Times also went home with no less than five of the coveted awards (six, if you count "Iggy & Juana"). We were very

honored to be selected for three Gold awards and two Silvers. "Best of Show" went to MLB Creative for a McDonald's holiday radio ad, and St. Thomas ad agencies Austin Advertising and Lambert Media also won a boatload of awards. It was a fun occasion to put on a nice frock and celebrate, and thanks to the Ad Club for a great event. David Carradine's band provided a nice end to the evening, performing original material in a songwriter-based folk/rock genre. For a complete list of St. John-based ADDY Award winners (congratulations all!) see below.
