PriorLIFE, a newly formed subsidiary of banner manufacturer Britten Inc. (Traverse City, MI), has delivered its first, recycled banner bags. The Davis Cup Winston-Salem Local Organizing Committee received 150 banner tote bags to distribute to volunteers from the recent Davis Cup by BNP Paribas quarterfinal between the United States and France, hosted by the United States Tennis Association (USTA) in Winston-Salem, NC.

The bags were created by recycling several building wraps and banners that welcomed the team and fans to the city mid-April 2008.

Having worked with Corporate Communications, a Britten reseller, priorLife recycled the event banners into unique tote bags for the event volunteers. Pam Klumpp, priorLife’s director, said, “The banner bags not only give people a chance to carry a piece of that event with them, they give companies and organizations the opportunity to be environmentally friendly.”

The tote-bag design included the U.S. Davis Cup team logo, flags and the message "USA/France Davis Cup Quarterfinal Tie, April 11-13, 2008, Winston-Salem NC." Inside each bag was a priorLIFE label with information about its origin, along with a tennis ball.

Event volunteers included drivers, greeters, hospitality workers, ball people and coaches, team valets, production assistants, media coordinators, office support staff, community artists and entertainment personnel.
