Alexander Barton, BMG President, took a pledge to avoid distracted driving which includes texting and using his phone. Thousands of people die every year from these types of activities.
The first Cruisin' Park Ridge show on June 3 was a huge success. A record turnout of classic and collector cars, trucks and motorcycles was matched only by amazing weather. Lots of families and others checked out the vehicles, munched hot dogs and listened to live rock music.
Here, Alexander Barton, President of the Barton Marketing Group, Park Ridge, is visited by Elvis from All4Fun Entertainment. BMG was one of the sponsors and a member of The Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce who hosts the car show.
For the third year, the Barton Marketing Group located in Park Ridge purchases its holiday client gifts in the Shop Local tradition. Using Rocky Mountain Chocolate, Lisa’s Italian Ice & Popcorn, and Tea Lula teas, festive gift baskets were put together and shipped or delivered to BMG clients throughout the Midwest. Here, l to r, are Lisa Ross, Dick Barton, Sheila Duda and Linda Hills. Barton was Chamber President in 2006 and helped create a communitywide Shop Local campaign originally started by a single store owner. “At BMG, my partner Alexander and I always try to purchase goods and services locally even company cars. Our clients love the Taste of Park Ridge baskets and give rave reviews.” (Photo by Kathleen Barton)
