We spend Sunday prepping the concrete floor getting it ready for the stain to be applied Wednesday. This will transform the place for a construction zone to kick ass venue space. Got some very cool impromptu artistry on tape that will make for a great commercial down the road. Pix of that to be posted in the next 24.
Just secured another sponsor this morning as well : One Call Construction. They will be helping us with anything electrical on the project and first off provide all required paperwork to TECO for our account to be opened up - another milestone forward. The owners of this company also have a registred non profit Hurricane Boxing.

The synergy here is already obvious - we will host a fundraiser for the boxing gym; a wonderful facility which the Velez family funds mostly out of their own pockets. The facility has provided structure to at risk youth in the neighborhood for years. It also fits in perfectly with our Budokan concept : a martial arts school which teaches multiple styles without politics. Kids will be required to do 15-20 hours of supervised community service in exchange for instruction. Business synergy abound here as well; there are already a couple of projects where we may be able to work together with this company. For example we may get an 8,000 concrete sealer job out of this & One Call is very interested in learning how to 'green out' their 5 licensed businesses. Will Velez - the owner - will meet Bryan on Wednesday.
Another interesting development : one of the students on the earthship site led us to this news article : Vengroff article. What we have in common here is the realization that these economic times call for a different way of thinking & doing things. so I contacted Mr. Vengroff & send him our latest marketing package. At the very least we can ensure the operational expenses of the real estate he plans to build are as cost efficient as possible.
Looks like we'll be meeting him on the earthship site next week.
