Mainstream Entertainment Group Inc. to Start Up Sports Entertainment Division in Mid 2012

Melville, NY (PRWEB) January 23, 2012

Mainstream Entertainment Group Inc., an industry leader in multimedia and marketing services, based in Long Island, New York, is about to embark on a new endeavor. "Most video production companies don't zero in on one thing in particular", says CEO and President Cory Poccia. "We wanted to add something unique to our company and do it right", he added.


In the 2nd Quarter of 2012, Mainstream Entertainment Group Inc. will launch a Sports Entertainment division. What does this mean? The company will be seeking to fulfill video production needs for those in the sports industry. Whether it's a local baseball team like the Long Island Ducks or it's a national event for the UFC, Mainstream Entertainment Group Inc. wants to be involved.


Cory Poccia is no stranger to the "sports entertainment" world. He worked for World Wrestling Entertainment before he founded Mainstream. "Being employed under Vince McMahon was a stepping stone in my career", Poccia said. Cory Poccia also worked with Hollywood powerhouse Scott Rudin and music mogul Clive Davis.


"Calling Dana White and the New York Islanders! We want you!" Poccia says. He stated that working with the likes of the New York Islanders or the UFC would be right up their alley. Ultimate Fighters like Matt Serra, Frankie Edgar, and newcomer Dennis Bermudez are residents in the New York/New Jersey areas. UFC pay per view events are usually preceded by a behind-the-scenes show called "Countdown to UFC". Poccia adds, "A contract with the UFC to film any of their fighters in the New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut Tri-State Areas would be ideal." Mainstream Entertainment Group Inc. currently has a contract with MTV Networks for post-production services.


Mainstream Entertainment Group, Inc. is a full service marketing and multimedia company serving the New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut tri-state area. The company, led by founder Cory Poccia, offers a full range of multimedia services for clients, including film and video production, web design, graphic design, DJ services, marketing solutions and more.

The company also offers design and printing services for numerous products, including invitations, post cards, newsletters, business cards, flyers, banners and more.

Seven Directions Tours Offers Unique Native Led Exploration of Santa Fe in Celebration of New Mexico?s 2012 Centennial

Santa Fe, New Mexico (PRWEB) January 25, 2012

2012 marks the State of New Mexico?s 100 years of statehood. For this exceptional year-long celebration Seven Directions Tours has designed a new historical adventure led by a Native Pueblo expert featuring a day-long quest highlighting the beginning of human inhabitance in the area and the evolving American Indians? culture through centuries of change and foreign presence. The compelling experience includes:

????Visiting ancient settlement sites
????Historical highlights
????Meaningful artifacts from singular collections
????Sampling the ingredients of the diet of those who were here before.

Santa Fe was already 200 years old when the White House was being built. It is the oldest capital in the United States. Still, its history goes back many more centuries. Today the city serves as a recognized cultural and artistic location with an unbeatable lifestyle and pure air. La Villa Real de la Santa F? de San Francisco de Ass?s ("The Royal Town of the Holy Faith of St. Francis of Assisi") was once called Kuapogi, ?place of the shell beads near the water" by its first inhabitants that found the valley a perfect place for their survival.

To put the state?s history in perspective, the year Congress admitted New Mexico into the Union the Republic of China was established, Amundsen discovered the South Pole, Italy acquired Libya after a war with the Ottoman Empire, Gustav Mahler's 9th Symphony premieres in Vienna, and the Pulitzer Prize was created.

From 10 to 6 a Native Pueblo expert will lead a journey through a time line that spans hundreds of years. His knowledge of the history, habits, beliefs, and turmoil of his ancestors offers a poignant insight into some of the country?s most interesting and intriguing history. A lunch at a traditional Pueblo home and a final dinner at a Native chef?s home provide an enjoyable experience of the traditional healthy Native cuisine.

This unique day-tour offers an entertaining discovery of Santa Fe?s diverse heritage that still holds a significant impact on today?s life and contributed to its nickname - the ?City Different?.

This Santa Fe tour requires a 72-hour advance reservation and is available from April to November 2012.

(PRWEB) January 24, 2012

Schools and colleges across the UK are today encouraged to start planning how they are going to celebrate the athletes and cultures of the world on London 2012 World Sport Day, presented by Lloyds TSB, on Monday 25 June 2012.


The day, which will open Lloyds TSB National School Sport Week in England and Wales, will give thousands of young people in schools across the UK the chance to take part in the final UK-wide Get Set event before the London 2012 Games begin.


The plans for London 2012 World Sport Day were announced today at the Copper Box in the Olympic Park. Get Set Network schools Ripple Primary School and Jo Richardson Secondary, both from Barking and Dagenham, took part in the announcement as well as Olympic Gold Medallist Jonathan Edwards, Team GB athletes Zoe Smith and Charlie Walker, Fijian athlete Sisilia Nsigia Rasokisoki and New Zealand athlete Jonathan Paget.

Students from schools and colleges will be encouraged to celebrate the athletes and cultures of the world on the day in a variety of ways including staging their own World Sport Day opening ceremony and profiling the sports, music, dance, languages, flags and food of the world.


The London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) will provide resources to schools through the official London 2012 education programme ?Get Set?, including tips from the London 2012 Ceremonies team of producers on how to host an opening ceremony for World Sport Day. Schools can download a planning guide to help them to prepare for their day at http://www.london2012.com/worldsportday


LOCOG will also be releasing and promoting new resources every month to help schools plan their day and decorate their school for the celebrations. Schools can request their free event pack on the World Sport Day website; the pack is full of branded materials and decorations, with schools in the Get Set network receiving access to extra materials and opportunities.


In England and Wales, London 2012 World Sport Day, delivered by the Youth Sport Trust, will act as the opening ceremony of Lloyds TSB National School Sport Week, giving schools a great opportunity to kick off a week of school sport and celebrations.


Seb Coe, London 2012 Chair, said: ?With the Games almost here, World Sport Day presented by Lloyds TSB is a fantastic opportunity to bring the young people of the UK together on one day to celebrate our amazing athletes from all over the world, and their nations and cultures. The day will showcase all the work young people are doing on the teams they have been supporting ? whether as a class, a year group or a whole school community. We want to encourage schools to involve parents, governors, members of the wider community and other local schools to join together on 25 June for what will be a great celebration of sport and cultures of the world.?


Team GB athlete Zoe Smith said: ?The Games are the world?s greatest festivals of sport and London 2012 World Sport Day is a great way to celebrate how London 2012 will bring athletes together from so many different cultures. I have always been inspired by the Games, mainly because it provides a platform to learn about athletes, cultures, food and language from all over the world. I?m delighted to be part of World Sport Day and to see how it will help young people to learn about these different elements, as well as getting excited about the Games!'


Sally Hancock, Director, 2012 Partnership and Group Sponsorship at Lloyds Banking Group said: ?Since 2008 Lloyds TSB has supported millions of young people in schools across Britain to do more sport through National School Sport Week. As the Presenting Partner of London 2012 World Sport Day, Lloyds TSB is proud to inspire a new generation of young people to try new sports, embrace the Olympic and Paralympic values, and prepare to welcome the world to the UK for the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. We?re looking forward to sharing the excitement of World Sport Day with schools in our communities as it marks the first day of National School Sport Week 2012.?


World Sport Day builds on the ?Support a Team? initiative launched by LOCOG in November 2011 as part of the ?Get Set goes global? programme through which schools across the UK were invited to become a supporter of at least one Olympic team and one Paralympic team, along with Team GB and ParalympicsGB, in the lead-up to the London 2012 Games.


Some schools are already planning their celebrations. Roger Mitchell, Headteacher at Ripple Primary School in Barking and Dagenham, said: ?Here at Ripple Primary School we are proud to hold a yearly Cultural Diversity fortnight. During this time, each class learns about a particular country and then puts on a showcase to celebrate that country?s culture. World Sport Day gives us the opportunity to both celebrate the London 2012 Games and incorporate the Cultural Diversity work and sports activities that our young people enjoy so much. Because we have a wonderful Samba band at our school, we will be supporting the Team Brazil on London 2012 World Sport Day and joining thousands of other schools across the UK in this occasion.?
