"No change to the operations of the Telluride Film Festival has been so pronounced and so important as the addition of 3rd St. and "Mother" (sound and lighting , communications) to our system in the early 1990's. Greg Carttar and his team have developed a communication system for the Festival that is second to none, allowing continuous communication between venues, booths, technical support, food service, transportation, guest services, administration, etc. The Festival is lit by 3rd St. and the lighting services help transform the Town of Telluride into the Telluride Film Festival. Greg and his team are consummate professionals and quite reasonable to work with. We feel we get great service and product for a fair price. We love these guys."

"Thanks for everything you and your team did for DARPA's GC; we surpassed all of our goals except for a finisher. This historical event will spark an interest for the next one. Comms worked due to the many months of hard work done by your team. Thank everyone for their professionalism and hard work during DGC 04 [to make it] a major success. You guys made it work!."

Col. Jose Negron USAF,
2004 Darpa Grand Challenge Program Manager

 

"The DARPA Grand Challenge achieved its goal to accelerate the development of autonomous ground vehicle technology that could someday be used in dangerous missions and save the lives of our men and women in uniform. Your efforts were instrumental to the successful outcome of this important effort."

"You guys did an absolutely fantastic job, and there is no doubt in my mind the [2005] Grand Challenge would not have come off as well without you there."

"Thank you again for the outstanding performance 3rd St. R & D Production Services provided at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA) Urban Challenge on November 3, 2007, in Victorville, California. 3rd St. brings a high level of expertise that provides a robust communications and tracking system and improves all the systems and helps all the groups that interface with 3rd St. You and your group bring common-sense engineering and experience that is invaluable in making the event a success"

"For your past contributions to the Agency at the Grand Challenges and your most recent work at the Urban Challenge, DARPA owes you and your staff a debt of gratitude for a job well done and for your professional dedication to mission success on our behalf. It was a pleasure working with you."
