January 25, 2011 – OPENING FUN! – Merestone created an opening video for the TSE 2011 (The Special Event 2011 ) in Phoenix. Camille Hill, President of Merestone and Jack Weiner owner of Kool Party Rentals were the appointed Ambassadors for this year’s conference. Merestone’s Creative Services Department came up with a story line that found Camille on the golf course and Jack at the spa when they were supposed to be on stage at the Opening General Session. The story line took them through Egypt (a “short-cut”), running around downtown Phoenix, trying to get by a no nonsense Security Guard and finally sliding down ropes to get onstage! If you would like to see the Opening video please go to YouTube- Merestone and enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/user/MerestoneAZ#p/a/u/0/7hJlCbjlmE4
