Luckily for us, we love water skiing and have the good fortune of working with the world’s best water ski manufacturer, Goode Skis.  Here are a couple recent videos we made for Goode using Go Pros, both featuring world champions, one with a Go Pro on his ski, the other with a Go Pro strapped to his chest.

Among the services we’ll be providing the Ivy League school is the management of regular communications with faculty, staff and students, including through the creation of a new newsletter and website.

ThinkSpark Media is proud to announce the launch of the 2013 version of ProutyPeople.org, a website that celebrates the people and places that make The Prouty Prouty Bike, Walk and Row Against Cancer a beloved community event.

This is the third year that TSM has teamed up with client and Prouty event organizer Friends of Norris Cotton Cancer Center to host ProutyPeople.org. The site features a navigable map with user-submitted participant, sponsor and supporter profiles. The TSM team not only developed the site’s design and architecture, but also the behind-the-scenes database that drives the mapping function.

The initiative is designed to build Prouty community spirit and boost fundraising efforts by giving supporters an opportunity to share the stories behind their involvement. The Prouty is northern New England’s largest fundraiser and has raised more than $17 million for cancer research and patient services at the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Norris Cotton Cancer Center. This year’s event takes place July 12-13.

Sincerely,
Justin Campfield

During our years of working with the Prouty Bike, Walk and Row Against Cancer, we’ve had the pleasure of meeting a number of inspiring people who are committed to the cause.

Yesterday we had the opportunity to produce a short video that featured five cyclists whose commitment went way above and beyond the normal … 100 miles above the normal to be exact.

Watch the video above for the rest of the story.

Kudos to the ThinkSpark Media web design team, which has been hard at work developing and launching websites for health care industry clients VOBA Solutions and the American Academy of Pediatrics Vermont Chapter.

To see the team’s handiwork, visit VOBASolutions.com and AAPVT.org.

It’s pretty cool to launch a new website, but even cooler when that website signals the start of a new company.  That’s what we’ve been up to lately, helping Lebanon, N.H.-based TrailCheck get up and running with the launch of Trail-Check.com.

In addition to designing and developing Trail-Check.com, we’ve helped the company by designing a logo, developing collateral materials and conducting national media outreach.

TrailCheck is a new browser-based software that creates electronic ski patrol incident reports that are more accurate, efficient and accessible than the traditional paper-based systems in wide use today.  The result? Improved document management, standardization of the report completion process, identification of gaps in information collection and secure storage of reports for easy access.

So the next time you are skiing or snowboarding, we really, really hope you don’t need help from the ski patrol.  But if you do … you might just see TrailCheck in action.

The campaign will aim to inform parents and policy makers of the importance of immunizations – and their track record of eliminating or greatly reducing numerous horrible diseases – across multiple platforms, including broadcast television and radio, online, publicity and social media.

In our minds, protecting children from potentially deadly and disabling diseases such as measles, meningitis, polio and whooping cough is an extremely worth goal and we’re honored to be a part of the effort.

We feel quite lucky to have Tom’s talent and experience on the team, and are certain ThinkSpark’s clients will feel the same way.

Welcome aboard Tom!
