The 2007 Addy's

The Knoxville Advertising Federation presented the 2007 ADDY awards this past weekend, and it was a very memorable evening for all of us at DNP. For starters, we walked away with over 100 ADDY awards for clients including Boston Whaler, Superpetz, Food City, Home Federal Bank, Weis Markets and The Lodge at Buckberry Creek, among others.

It was also a special evening because our President and CEO, Buddy McLean, was presented with the prestigious Bob McCabe Silver Medal Award in honor of his contributions to the Knoxville advertising industry and the community. Buddy joined DNP as an account executive in 1972 and became our agency’s owner, president and CEO in 1989. In addition to building DNP into what it is today, Buddy has always been extremely involved in local charitable and civic organizations. You couldn’t find a more deserving, or a nicer, person for this award.

Congratulations, Buddy!
