Since our inception, we have created hundreds of mascot costumes for
clients around the world. Our clients include pro sports teams,
colleges, high schools, corporations, theme parks and festivals. We
have trained performers and administrators and supplied mascot
management services to a number of clients regionally and abroad.
Through it all, we are proud to say that Street Characters has
established itself as the world leader in creating FUN!
In a previous issue of The Sports Business Journal, an article
called "Promotions to Pack the Park" focused on promotions that were
most successful in increasing attendance, as used during Major League
Baseball's 2001 season. These promotions were ranked by the percentage
increase in attendance. While the results may come as a surprise to
some, they only reinforce the idea that quality mascot uniforms are key
components to marketing campaigns.
The variety of models of mascot costumes range from animals to
fantasy characters to human characters, and everything else in between!
Street Characters Inc. roots trace back to 1984 when our company
president Glenn Street was involved in the creating two high profile
local mascot characters and team costumes. Those mascot costumes were
Harvey the Hound of the Calgary Flames , the first mascot in the
National Hockey League and Harry the Horse, of the world famous Calgary
Exhibition and Stampede.
While performing as Harvey, Glenn was frequently asked by other
teams how they could get a similar character for their own. Seeing a
great opportunity, Glenn started Street Characters Inc. in 1987 and
began providing team costumes.
Since then, Street Characters Inc. has grown to become a
complete mascot solutions company. As well as making great team
costumes, we audition and train performers for clients and consult with
THEM in the management of their characters. We also sell support
materials like training manuals and videos designed to help clients
make the most of their mascot. No other mascot company offers the range
of expertise or products that we do.
