🍌🎉 Big shoutout to the Savannah Bananas for proving that going bananas over your brand can indeed peel away the conventional layers of marketing and expose the fruit of success! 🎉
Who would have thought that a baseball team named after a fruit could teach us all a masterclass in brand growth? The Savannah Bananas have shown us that the secret sauce (or should we say, the secret smoothie?) to game-changing success is a simple, yet often overlooked recipe: love your customers and put your people first.
In a world where businesses often swing for the fences, the Savannah Bananas have hit a grand slam by focusing on creating a fan experience that’s as appealing as their name. It’s not just about the baseball; it’s about the entertainment, the engagement, and the sheer joy they bring to their community and fans.
They’ve turned their games into a first class cirque type circus of fun, proving that when you love your customers more than your product, you turn spectators into die-hard fans.
So, here’s to the Savannah Bananas 🥂, for reminding us that in the serious game of business, a little humor, a lot of love, and putting your people first can make you the top banana in your field. May your bunch continue to grow, and may we all take a page from your playbook and inject a little more fun and love into what we do. CONGRATS Jesse Cole - keep crushing it!

The Savannah Bananas just Sold Out Fenway Park.
As a kid I had the dream of playing for the Red Sox at Fenway but could have never imagined our small town team from Savannah could accomplish something like this.
From selling only a handful of tickets in our first few months to now selling out one of the most iconic venues in sports is beyond special.
I'm so proud of our organization for making this happen.
I will never stop dreaming big, but it's all of my amazing teammates and Banana Nation who made this happen.
This is just the start and we are still in the first inning. But June 8th will be a day I will never forget.
I PLEDGE my HEAD to clearer thinking,
my HEART to greater loyalty,
my HANDS to larger service,
and my HEALTH to better living,
for my family, my club, my community, my country and my world.
This is the 4-H Pledge that youth and adults recite at the opening of each meeting. In the spirit of that pledge to clearer thinking, we ask “is there a future for 4-H in Sherburne County?”
Last summer, the 4-H horse project funded and painted the barns to freshen them up for fair. Imagine the disappointment as everything the kids worked to prepare for was deluged with rain through the failing roofs on the horse barns as several waves of extreme weather occurred during fair week. The normal flurry of excitement was replaced with an all-out scramble to shift horses to higher ground and wait out the storm while also scrambling to save thousands of dollars’ worth of hay, feed, show clothes, tack and equipment. This is one of many issues that need to be addressed to deal with aging infrastructure and the future of the county fairgrounds.
The county has indicated at various times the desire to sell and redevelop the property the fairground occupies. That constant fear of being evicted from the fairgrounds has not served the best interests of the youth or the community at large. Sherburne County businesses and residents are overwhelmingly supportive of 4-H programming when made aware of needs and how they can help. But who will invest in updating and improving the aging infrastructure of a fairgrounds under constant threat of eviction and redevelopment of the property? If the long-range plan is to relocate the fairgrounds, then please, let us begin the dialogue to plan out a timeline and details for beginning that endeavor. We need to at least work together to solve the immediate issues to serve our youth of today as well as plan for the future of our youth. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Please, let us not fail our youth any longer.

Note: this letter was sent to all Sherburne County commissioners. The purpose of this post is to raise awareness of safety issues at the Sherburne County fairgrounds.

Shooting beautiful award-winning images with the WOW factor that will get your business noticed. Headshots/Portraits/People/PR.
Delighted today to let the world see my latest #headshot with the very relaxed Colm Dowling.
Taken on Friday morning last week at the offices of Safehinge Primera with a combination of two lights and a silver bounce - along with a couple of lenses for different outcomes.
A blether and two strong black coffees later we were both happy with the results and happy to make the choice.
Here is the image chosen by Colm - I think you'll agree its a strong shot and conveys all the good things you'd want from a headshot - confidence and affability among others.
Congratulations, Colm on winning the West of Scotland KTP Centre Image Competition and it was a pleasure to judge all the entries, along with Richard Lamb and Amelia Whitelaw, and award the prize to your good self for a well-composed and meaningful competition entry.
Cheers!
Guy
