The event requests keep rolling in...

Here's another one, and it's a pretty good one...and it's a great cause. We had a photographer at this event last year, and I would love to get a photographer out to this one, and a writer if possible, too.

Good afternoon Ben – I hope this finds you well…

I wanted to give enough time for consideration to once again send a spotted in wny crew out to our Reach For the Stars creative black tie gala (a crew was able to join us last year)
.

The event is Saturday, April 4th at the Seneca Niagara Casino – we will sell out soon and have over 900 guests in attendance – each guest is encouraged to come dressed as their favorite Hollywood celebrity – details are on our website at www.wny.wish.org Please let me know your thoughts – thanks!!

I should add a note here - when it comes to black tie galas, our writers and photographers don't need to wear tuxedos and evening gowns (although if you want to, feel free). Media at these events are expected to dress appropriately - a tie and a jacket for the gents, a suit or a nice skirt for the ladies.

But please don't feel like you will be the uncouth guest if you're not in formal wear - and this is coming from a guy who is OCD enough about clothes to turn around on the way to work and change his socks because they don't "feel" right - the folks in attendance know the deal, and they are excited to have you there taking their photos or telling their stories.
