AIDS WALK LA ...Sunday, Oct 19th

Hello fellow Blades,

The Coors Cup tournament has come and gone, and most can agree that it was a success in many areas. As we have all said and heard many times over the years.. " it was a lot of fun hanging out and catching up with friends and teammates, from the past and present". Well, another opportunity is coming along and lets us all get together for a fun 6 mile walk for a good cause that has touched many of us in some way, shape, or form.

On Sunday, October 19th, there is the AIDS WALK !!! In the past ( 2001, 2002), we had put together a team and walked in a group 20 ppl strong. we raised a decent amount of $$, and had a blast doing it. It has since lost interest, so I am making a plea to get it up and running again.
I am already leading a team from the Polo Lounge at Beverly Hills Hotel, and not sure I can be a team leader on both, but would be happy to get things set up if there is an interest. If you would like to walk as The LA Blades, let me know ASAP, and I will get it going. The "giving back to the community" looks good on our resume when we look for corporate sponsors for upcoming tournaments, fundraisers, etc.

There are four ways to participate:

1) Join fellow Blades players and walk as team LA BLADES, raise $$ with online donations. ( once you register, the site walks you through fundraising ideas, your personal online donation page, templates to send others in regard to joining our team, donations, thank you's etc etc ..)

2) Join team Polo Lounge, and walk with a team I have already organized with 15 very cool people. ( see above )

3) Sponsor Me as I will be walking, and want to raise a LOT OF $$$

4) Do Nothing, and delete this e-mail

I hope you all make a decision based on how you feel in your heart, and I will love you either way!
Peace,Doug Brotherhood
