Corey & I attended a fundraiser on Thursday 9/18 after work at an art gallery in Beverly Hills - Ace Gallery. The event was incredibly well organized with an open bar, passed apps, a band and over 40 items available for silent auction. The event was very close to Corey's heart since all of the money raised was going to Next Step Fitness http://www.nextstepfitness.org/ which was started by Corey's good friend (Janne Kouri) after he was in a tragic accident over two years ago. The accident, which left him paralyzed, was during the Annual Manhattan Beach 6 Man Volleyball Tournament. Fortunately through his family, wife, amazing group of friends and unbelievable amount of support from the community he was able to start a rehab facility. The event was such an amazing success that I know everyone involved were so pleased. I actually bid and won a ski package which got us 4 one-day ski passes to Vail, Colorado; Smith Ski Goggles; Smith Sunglasses and Head skis!! I was so excited that we won the package ($375) and especially glad it was going to such an amazing cause. Check out this pic from the gallery.
