Rockies – the winners

Saturday evening, The Rockies happened. As an in-person event. Outdoors.

There was sun, and rain, and wind, and even some lightning in the distance. But Idaho spring weather aside, much credit to the Boise Advertising Federation and Idaho Advertising Federation for pulling off the show, making it comfortable for those who attended in person, and for offering a livestream for those that chose to watch from afar.

And now, a few highlights.

A year of going Against

Against recently celebrated their one year anniversary. And as one does these days, they commemorated it with a highlight video on Instagram.

Today we turned one! 365 days ago we picked April Fools as the day to officially launch Against. And by officially launch we mean hit “publish” on our website. Because if you can’t google it, it’s not real! . It has been an amazing year full of laughter, high-fives and a literal earthquake! . We are so grateful to all the rad humans who have joined us on this adventure. We would try to list them but it would be impossible. To our clients and partners, we heart you big time, thank you for inviting us to be a part of your team. To our interns and students, you keep us inspired and loaded on the latest lingo. Periodt. (Did we do that right?!) and best for last; to the latest editions to team Against, @kinzhague, @klamott, @whatablessedmess... nothing but mad love and elbow bumps. (Till fist bumps and fireworks are safe again). Let’s do this! . Here’s where we (Jennie) would say “next up; total world domination” but there’s a nasty thing called COVID that’s got that covered. So instead we’ll sign off with a sincere, thank you and high hopes for the future. 2020, we’re onto you. . . #agencylife #oneyearold #advertising #creativity #boom #happyanniversary
