Gov. Dave Heineman announced the winners of the 2007 Nebraska Travel Industry awards at the Nebraska Travel Conference banquet Thursday October 17 in Columbus.
“Each nominee honored last night truly loves Nebraska and wants to see the state’s tourism industry succeed and flourish,” Gov. Heineman said. “They have shown that they enjoy being from Nebraska and working hard to make this state a tourist destination.”
The 2007 award winner for the Friend of Tourism award went to Ron Sack, a Lincoln resident and St. Paul native who does in-kind work for several St. Paul area organizations.
Sack, senior art director at the marketing communications firm Bailey Lauerman, has been instrumental in the artistic creation and design of recent tourism promotion efforts for St Paul. He has helped the Howard County Historical Society with certain artifact displays and layouts and designed promotional material for the Loup Basin’s Junk Jaunt™ and had designed cards for the Howard County Tourism Committee.
He was influential in the overall conceptual development and provided professional design services for St Paul’s most recent marketing campaign. This campaign included design and finish art for: The St Paul Brochure, Omaha World Herald, Lincoln Journal Star, Nebraska Life, Journal Getaways, Interstate Billboard Layout, and Lincoln Saltdogs Program.
These services listed above included hundreds of hours of in-kind services that were entirely donated by Ron W. Sack. Because of Ron’s generosity the community of St Paul now has professionally created material and a master file of design concepts and photographs that can be used for future tourism endeavors that will bring more people and interest to the region.
