The beer is chilled and sitting in the (gasp) car. The sponsors are lined up for the raffle. Heck, there's even rumors that we're going to have a band for part of the evening. Tomorrow night from 6:00 P.M. to 9:00 P.M. is the first Streetsblog fundraiser at the Eco Village, 117 Bimini Place. Anyone not familiar with the Eco-Village should click on this link
for directions, and note that it's a couple of blocks away from the
Beverly/Vermont Red Line Station. The suggested donation is $25, but
feel free to give whatever fits in your budget.
A lot of people have helped make this event happen. A pretty awesome sounding buffet is being put together by a pair of caterers, Dawn Carey Newton and Deborah Murphy, with an Eco-Salad and some home cookin' from my house as well. We'll have beer from our best friends at New Belgium Brewing and a non-alcoholic drinks courtesy of Trader Joe's. In addition to some good drinks, we'll have a presentation including the handing out of four Streetsie Awards to Biking In L.A., the Eco-Village, City of Lights and the East Hollywood Neighborhood Council, the debuting of the first L.A. Streetfilm that was written and produced right here in L.A., and a raffle with prizes sponsored by the Eco Home, Eco-Village and Orange 20 Bikes.
A quick salute to our generous sponsors!
