      Hello everyone,
      We are chomping at the bit to show our film for a live audience tomorrow at the beautiful Wheeler Opera House in Aspen. We have been scheduled as the final film in our group (the best for last!)

      Don't get the wrong idea, we still need funds, we are continuing negotiations with some amazing popular bands who have allowed us to use their music for this showing. We would also love to get this out to as many people as we can. So please keep passing the word onto your friends and family, we have a week left to meet and ultimately surpass our goal!

      Thank you again for all your support!

      Sincerely,
      Kim
