Recognition Galore

Some notable recognition we’ve come across lately:

For those that haven’t heard, Drake Cooper was named one of Outside Magazine’s 30 Best Places to Work. Coming in at number 26, Drake Cooper joins the likes of New Belgium Brewing, Clif Bar and a host of others on the list.

In June, Russ Stoddard, founder and chief executive officer of Oliver Russell received the Service to Community Award from his alma mater, the University of Puget Sound. The Service to Community award “recognizes talents or skills in projects that improve quality of life through human service, the arts, recreation, education, or other pursuits,” and was one of four Distinguished Alumni Awards presented earlier this summer by UPS.

Oliver Russell was also named one of the top 100 advertising agencies in the United States by BtoB Magazine for the fifth year in a row.

From Coeur d’Alene to points much farther south. And east.

Word reached us recently that Hanna & Associates, based on Coeur d’Alene, plans to open an office in Florida, which they hope “will be a launch point for expanding its services in the Southeast,” according to a quote from Dayne Hanna.

No specific word on where or when the Florida office will open.
