Gorilla Dirt Launches Elemental Duffle Bag on Kickstarter – Built for Adventure
Elemental Duffle Bag, a weather-resistant, adventure-ready duffle bag, launches on Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gorilladirt/elemental-duffle-bag-built-for-adventure). A new duffle bag launched by Gorilla Dirt (https://gorilladirt.com) aims to take on the hard shell cargo boxes and canvas style bags in the adventure travel space, such as overlanding and off-road adventure. The campaign has 27 days to go as of August 8 and is 50% funded.
The duffle bags are designed using a weather-resistant, polyethylene shell for dust, dirt and moisture resistance but also tear and puncture resistance. The seams are all heat pressed. It includes utility loops for attaching extra gear, nylon straps for carrying and the load-bearing support straps are adjustable. The load straps can also be used to attach additional gear or as ties downs in some situations. There are two sizes for this launch - a 28L and a 65L.
The bags are designed for durability and portability while on the trail. They are suited for anyone needing storage for gear, clothing, food, etc. that wants to be able to move that storage around easily and access its contents quickly while off on their adventures. The bags have been tested by us as well as other adventure travelers. One, in particular, Baptism Overland, put this bag through a number of uses on their YouTube channel.
"The bags are all about the 'getting dirty and staying dirty' lifestyle that we promote. We wanted a storage option that protected against all this dirty fun but had more portability than your typical hard shell storage option," said Blake Lemmons, Founder of Gorilla Dirt and the Elemental Duffle Bag.

Skye Virtual Agent Eases Front Desk Pressure, Improves Hotel Guest Experience
NEW YORK - August 9, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Tyme Global today announced the launch of its virtual agent, Skye, an addition to its menu of remote staffing services.
Skye uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to understand conversational language and recognize intent. As a result, guests can interact naturally with Skye as if speaking with a human operator. Calls, texts, and emails are answered immediately with no wait time.
Skye fields frequently asked questions and basic requests so that on-site staff can focus on in-person interactions. For example, if a caller needs the check-in time, directions, or more towels, Skye can handle the requests easily, bypassing the front desk. The system can add entries into ticketing systems such as housekeeping or maintenance dispatch to fulfill each request. Further, calls can be augmented by sending appropriate links to a guest's cell phone, such as maps and directions or restaurant reservation portals. If a guest wishes to speak to a live person, Skye transfers the call to an in-house or off-site agent.
Equipped with a variety of voices and accents, Skye is customized to match the client's brand. Additionally, each property can add as many localized elements as they wish. Like a concierge, Skye can provide information such as the nearest pharmacy (with a map), where to find a good slice of pizza, and how to get tickets for a show.
Tyme Global CEO Ryan Levin said, "With the hospitality industry experiencing a staffing crisis, it's more important than ever to keep guests happy. One way to do that is to prevent frequently asked questions and basic requests from ever reaching the front desk. With Skye, guests get their needs met without sitting on hold. And hotels don't have to worry about hiring more people. It's a win-win."
Skye's ability to bypass the front desk offers on-site teams the freedom to focus on in-person interactions and escalations. Quickly resolving routine inquiries leads to greater customer satisfaction. Skye by Tyme Global is helping to solve the staffing problem at a fraction of the cost of recruiting, training, and managing personnel.
###
Tyme Global offers over a decade of exceptional hospitality service and sales expertise through remote staffing solutions for voice, text, and email. We remove the burden of recruiting, onboarding, and managing on-site staff by providing highly trained off-site agents. Our offerings include PBX/Guest Services, Email Inbox/Data Services, Central Reservations, and a virtual agent, Skye, to field FAQs and basic requests. Our native English-speaking and bilingual workforce are held to the 5-star Forbes service standards. Fast, flexible, and fully customized, our teams operate using state-of-the-art technology to provide the highest quality customer care. For more information, visit tymeglobal.com.

Solar Cannabis Co. Announces Inaugural ‘Solar Invitational’ Disc Golf Tournament and B2B Networking Event...
SOMERSET, Mass. - August 5, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Solar Cannabis Co. (Solar) today announced its inaugural "Solar Invitational" Disc Golf Tournament and Cannabis Industry Networking Event at Maple Hill in Leicester, MA on Thursday, Sept. 15, 2022, from 2-8 p.m.
Solar (a leading vertically integrated cannabis operator in the State of Massachusetts) is set to launch its very own "Solar Invitational" - a cannabis industry disc golf tournament at Maple Hill, the world's top-rated course. The event will welcome all industry operators, vendors and advocates to partake in a scramble-style tournament while enjoying a cannabis-friendly environment with a wide variety of local food and beverage vendors and live music.
"We couldn't be more proud to bring a first-of-its-kind event centered around disc golf and cannabis to the greater Worcester community," said Edward Dow, CEO of Solar Cannabis Co. "We wanted to create a unique experience that would be inclusive of all operators, vendors and supporters within the cannabis industry and build it around a day of fun and competitive disc golf play."
The inaugural Solar Invitational is aimed to defy the stereotypical corporate outings and B2B networking events. Competition play is a mixed foursome comprising 18 total teams on Maple Hill's intermediate "reds course." There will be no shortage of opportunities to engage with high-minded individuals from all areas of the industry. Every attendee is guaranteed to leave with new, genuine connections, good conversation, some laughs, and a larger network.
"I really believe there's a distinct connection between cannabis and disc golf," said Dow. "We want everyone that will be attending to enjoy a relaxed, cannabis-friendly environment with great vendors, food and drink and live entertainment. Even if they choose to not participate in the tournament, they're going to have a great time and leave with some new connections within the industry."
The disc golf movement, which has been known to have evolved from the "hippie culture" in Southern California nearly 40 years ago, is now an established sport with millions of players and massively attended national and international tournaments. Over its evolution, the nature of the game has created an inclusive and casual sport where individuals who tend to seek an alternative to "the links" can play a more laid-back, but competitive game.
Those who wish to participate in the Solar Invitational disc golf tournament, inquire about sponsorship, or become a vendor can learn more here.

Designed to raise funding for 300,000 meals to more than 60,000 residents of South Jersey who are food insecure, this event brought together many of the top restauranteurs in the area.
"At Joe Italiano's, we use our award-winning food to bring people together to help them communicate with one another and to share a sense of family," said Chris Curry, General Manager of Joe Italiano's Maplewood. "Helping people in the community realize that there are many that don't have access to food and helping them discover that this is something they should care about, is the first step to driving real change. The fact that we could use our signature pastas and seafood dishes to help drive this kind of change made participating in this event a no-brainer."
Over the course of two hours, over 200 people were able to sample Joe Italiano's go-to destination for Italian food. "Seeing the look on people's faces as they bite into our pasta made the event worthwhile by itself," said Justin Italiano, General Manager of Joe Italiano's Maplewood. "We got to talk to people about what they like, and how they like to make meals. I love talking about food. And there is no better time to do that than when people are eating."
Joe Italiano's Maplewood is renowned for its classics that include chicken and veal parmigiana, freshly made pasta with classic Maplewood meatballs in their famous red sauce (gravy), quintessential spaghetti and crab, ravioli crafted like an Italian grandmother makes and, not least, Joe's Special, a signature dish full of fresh local seafood.
Pleasing people has been Joe Italiano's secret ingredient for over 70 years. Along with the good food, good company and good times, the restaurant participates in other events that support people in need.
