The 2018 Rockie Awards Show was a raucous and rowdy affair as usual, and good times were had all around.
A few notables from Saturday night’s event:
The Silver Medal Award went to Sherie Moody-St. Clair from the Idaho Lottery
Drake Cooper took home Best of Show for their J. A. and Kathryn Albertson Family Foundation work.
Oliver Russell and Scentsy both won at the regional level as well — a Gold regional ADDY for Oliver Russell and a Silver for Scentsy. Oliver Russell’s submission has since been forwarded to the national competition.
Congratulations to all the winners.
It’s the first BAF Lunch & Learn of 2018!!

A bad day at the golf course still beats a good day at the office …
Don’t believe us? Allow us to prove it to you. Join us for the 2017 Boise Advertising Federation’s Legends of Advertising Golf Tournament held at BanBury Golf Club on Friday, October 6th. This golf tournament is held annually to celebrate past Idaho advertising legends, and to support Idaho’s collegiate ad clubs.
The cost of entry includes a BBQ on the 19th hole at BanBury but you’re on your own to help your struggling golf game with the purchase of mulligans, feet of string and grenades to improve your score.
Students planning to participate in the coming year’s National Student Advertising Competition (NSAC) will be on the course to raise money for their ad clubs, and proceeds from the tournament will support these teams as well.
We’re looking forward to seeing everyone on the links and making this the best tournament to date!
Registration ends on October 2nd.
