Photo Contest Winner Selected!
by Cameron Wolf - Marketing Specialist

This month's winner of the photo contest is driver Brandon Brundage! He captured this gem of our
Sweet Leasing trailer/Sweet truck and Mt. Shasta on US -97 in California! This may be the finest
photo of a Sweet Leasing photo ever. Anyone trying to prove that wrong?!

This was a very successful contest overall, as we had over 40 entries and a great selection of photos.
The contest itself seems to be something that lost a little steam compared to the last one we ran, and
are opening up the suggestion box to future contests! If you think you have the next big idea, feel
free to send your suggestions and ideas to: marketing@sweet-omni.com.

Runner up:

Think outside of the box.

Kyle Johnson Wins Sweet Express Weight Loss
Competition
by Cameron Wolf - Marketing Specialist

Congratulations Kyle!

After winning the monthly prizes every month of our 12 week competition, our mechanic, Kyle Johnson
took home the whole cake (you can eat cake again, Kyle) by winning the prize of some time off and a
little cash to go with it!. Kyle lost 57 pounds en route to a 18% loss. Truly outstanding.

Great job to everyone that participated in the competition. It was a grueling process for everyone, and
some of the results are truly amazing! No matter the result, the effort was special one across the board.
Until next time, eat clean, be healthy, and practice good dietary habits. Your body is a temple!
Remember, what you put in it, you'll get out of it. You wouldn't want to put the lowest octane fuel in a
premium racing engine, right?
