JN Phillips Auto Glass "Goes Green" in Celebration of Boston Celtics
Opening Night
JN Phillips Auto Glass employees and their customers commemorated the start
of the Boston Celtics season by taking part in Project Green, a program launched
by The Celtics to help increase sponsor participation in conjunction with the
start of their season. The project outfitted employees of the team's corporate
partners in Celtics shirts during the workday of the Celtics season opening game
versus the New York Knicks on November 2nd.
JN Phillips Auto Glass and other Celtics corporate sponsors, including Dunkin'
Donuts, New England Eye Center, McDonald's and Southwest Airlines, participated
in the program. The team distributed Celtics shirts for employees of sponsors
to wear in celebration of Celtics Opening Night.
"Project Green was a major success in integrating the Celtics corporate
partners in the excitement Opening Night," Celtics Executive Vice President
of Sales and Marketing Rich Gotham said. "The Celtics are always looking
at new and innovative ways to make our sponsors feel like they are a part of the
team."
In addition to wearing the shirts provided by the Celtics, some sponsors enhanced
the Celtics presence in their workplace. JN Phillips Auto Glass workers wore Celtics
hats and the company changed their phone system to reference Celtics Opening Night.
Project Green was one of several corporate partner initiatives associated with
Opening Night. Pepsi sponsored an Opening Night Block Party outside the TD Banknorth
Garden and Anheuser-Busch ran ticket promotions at various Boston-area bars.
