"Why are we being forced to choose between the economy and the environment? We tend to forget that without an environment we would not have an economy, as everything we consume and I mean everything comes from our environment."

My Comrades, My Companions,
To those that walk amongst the stars and sail with the winds that kiss the crests of the noontide,
I hope this finds you well and at the end of a week filled with purpose, productivity, and
positive energy.
I am hosting an Austrailian wine tasting fundraiser to benefit The Green Long March and The Red
Cross China. Originally, the event was planned to raise funds for GLM, however, in light of
the devastation resulting from the earthquake we decided to split the funds raised for the event.
So, the proceeds from the wine tasting will be split 50/50 between the Red Cross and GLM.
We will taste six different Austrialian wines, three whites and three reds. First, let me state that
this is a wine tasting, however unlike typical wine tastings, this will be a free flow tasting.
This means you can dink as much as you would like of any particular wine.
In addition to great wines, we will have a silent auction for some wonderful pieces of art.
All of the proceeds (100%) from the silent auction will go to the Red Cross. Please invite lots of friends
and remember to RSVP for them all. The event is sponsored by, GELIPU Wines Beijing, and KOKOMO,
and myself.
For any questions please email LaMarr at lamarr_irby@hotmail.com or call 13581730100.
I look forward to seeing you on the 12th. And remember, when we meet let it be with a smile.
Love Love,
LaMarr
