Alfa Romeo today unveiled the 4C Spider 33 Stradale Tributo, inspired by the 1967 Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale, the brand’s legendary mid-engine sports car. Only 33 units of this limited-edition 4C Spider will be produced for North America.

«Since its introduction in 2014, the 4C has been a halo vehicle for Alfa Romeo, exciting enthusiasts around the world and spearheading the relaunch of the brand in North America,» said Tim Kuniskis, Global Head of Alfa Romeo. «The 4C Spider 33 Stradale Tributo is an instant Alfa Romeo classic that passes the torch to the next generation of iconic Alfa Romeo vehicles, including the upcoming Tonale PHEV crossover that will start production next year.»

The 4C Spider 33 Stradale Tributo comes exclusively in Rosso Villa d’Este tri-coat exterior color, with gray-gold 5-hole alloy wheels (18-inch front/19-inch rear) and composite sport seats covered in black Dinamica® suede and tobacco leather.

The 33 Stradale
The 1967 33 Stradale is an iconic Alfa Romeo that made its public debut at the Monza circuit on August 31, 1967, on the eve of the 1967 Formula One Italian Grand Prix.

Italian for «road-going,» and boasting a top speed of 162 mph, the 33 Stradale was a hand-built Franco Scaglione-penned mid-engine exotic based on the Tipo 33 race car that won its class at the 1968 24 Hours of Daytona. To this day it represents a singular blend of leading-edge technology, racing mechanics and inspirational design, a fitting forebear to the 4C Spider. Only 18 chassis were ever produced, with most completed cars painted in Alfa’s signature red, with gray-gold wheels and black-and-tobacco interior.

Alfa Romeo
Celebrating 110 years of heritage, Alfa Romeo has designed and crafted some of the most stylish and sporty cars in automotive history.

Frederick Balloon Co. is Lifting Community Spirits with Balloons

FREDERICK, Md., Dec. 14, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Caity Byrne, award winning balloon artist and owner of Frederick Balloon Co., has launched a campaign to «Sponsor Some Cheer» for first responders, front line workers, and community members most affected by the pandemic.

The holidays have traditionally been a time to show extra appreciation to those who serve the community; and to give special attention to residents in long term care facilities. Social contact restrictions have taken away the option of sharing homemade goodies and gifts, but there’s a creative solution – Send them balloons!

Byrne runs a balloon décor business based in Frederick, Maryland. She and her staff have designed a collection of stunning helium bouquets for safe, contact free delivery to healthcare professionals, Fire/EMS, police, and those in nursing homes with limited or no visitors.

«I worked in the Frederick Memorial Hospital s Emergency Department for several years. The frontline heroes of this community are not faceless. I have literally shared blood, sweat, and tears with many of these amazing people. I’ve taken care of the elderly. Finding a way to thank and honor them was a no brainer,» says Byrne.

Byrne, who has been a Certified Balloon Artist since 2013, has over a decade of experience in large scale balloon installations, including two White House events. She has also taught at numerous industry conventions.

«This pandemic has taken its toll on everyone. My small business was hit particularly hard, and we aren’t able to donate balloons as we normally would this time of year. ‘Sponsor Some Cheer’ felt like a way my Frederick neighbors can support a small business while honoring our most valiant, and most fragile community members.»

The «Sponsor Some Cheer» initiative will last through the end of December. Deliveries are made on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Senders may choose to enclose a positive message or send anonymously at http://www.FrederickBalloons.com/cheer

About Caity Byrne and Frederick Balloon Co.

Caity discovered her passion for decorating events with balloons nearly a decade ago, when she founded Beltway Balloons, a regional supplier serving corporations, nonprofits, associations and government agencies throughout the Greater Washington, DC, area.

Since that time, she’s earned professional certification and training in balloon architecture, materials, manufacturing, design, delivery, and display. She has been sponsored to teach other balloon professionals around the country.

You could say she’s passionate about balloons!

The Frederick Balloon Co. was launched because there was a pressing need in Frederick County for a balloon décor provider that’s serious about innovative and elegant experiences—the kind that deliver results. From bouquets to large-scale installations, Frederick Balloon Co is here for their community.

Media please note: Interviews and photo/footage opportunities can be arranged.

Demand High As Regional Travel Vouchers Snapped Up

PR Newswire

MELBOURNE, Vic., Australia, 14 December 2020

MELBOURNE, Vic., Australia, 14 December 2020 /PRNewswire Policy/ — Enthusiastic Victorians secured 30,000 vouchers for travel in regional Victoria in little more than half an hour today, in a win for summer holiday-makers, as well as businesses and workers around the state.

The $200 vouchers were taken up in just 31 minutes, bringing the total allocated in the first round of the Andrews Labor Government’s Regional Travel Voucher Scheme to 70,000.

The dedicated application platform welcomed a peak audience of 72,000 page views per minute as Victorians again demonstrated their desire to hit the road over the holidays.

The first round of vouchers can be claimed for travel until Friday, 22 January. For Victorian residents who have not yet secured a voucher, there will be further chances in coming months.

A further 40,000 vouchers will be released on 20 January for travel between 27 January and 1 April, and 40,000 more on 30 March for travel between 6 April and 31 May.

Successful applicants can redeem their voucher after completing their travel and providing proof they spent at least $400 on accommodation, experiences, tours or attractions in regional Victoria, the Yarra Ranges or the Mornington Peninsula.

Travellers must also spend at least two nights in paid accommodation as part of the voucher conditions.

The extra 30,000 vouchers were made available after many people experienced delays when the application landing page was forced offline for extended periods on Friday. The initial 40,000 allocation was exhausted by Friday night.

Any vouchers not presented for payment in the first and second rounds of the scheme will be added to the 30 March allocation.

Vouchers are limited to one per household. For more information, visit vic.gov.au/regional-travel-voucher-scheme.

Quotes attributable to Acting Minister for Tourism, Sport and Major Events Jaclyn Symes

“After a tough year, these vouchers will help people travel who may not have otherwise had the means and allow others to stay longer in our beautiful coastal towns, High Country and everywhere in-between.”

“More visitors means more money in the tills of local businesses and more jobs for workers across the state as we gear up for a COVIDSafe summer and a very different 2021.”
