Hayslett Group Makes Memories


Hayslett Group recently worked with Capitol Impact, LLC on a website project for Briarcliff High School's Class of 1966 4oth reunion.

Using photographs from the 1966 yearbook and technology from today, we created a functional and memorable site, www.briarcliff66.com. The site makes it easy to get in touch and keep in touch with old friends, as well as making the organization of an event like this easy as 1,2, 3. Check it out!

New Client Update: Crossroads 400

Hayslett Group has been retained by the Crossroads 400 Group to manage public relations activities surrounding its proposed development and construction of a comprehensive overhaul of GA 400. The project is a Public Private Initiative, bringing together a consortium of highly qualified private-sector firms that are able to finance, design and build a transportation solution in a fraction of the time possible through traditional state-run programs. The project, anticipated to deliver a completed solution in 2015, will likely incorporate a mix of traditional general purpose lanes, HOV lanes and managed lanes that operate on congestion-based tolling. The goal is development of not only more capacity for this growing region, but a variety of transportation options that will provide greater accessibility while decreasing travel times.
