[Fredslist] The Bid Goes On, Extras Needed For Special Olympic Filming Monday

[Michael Millis]

Hello Along The Network,

As many of you know, I have been involved with NYC2012 and its efforts to 
bring the 2012 Summer Olympic Games to New York City. In spite of the 
Stadium vote on Monday (and the wrangling on that project is continuing), 
New York will still make its final presentation to the International Olympic 
Committee (IOC) in 26 days.

Over this weekend, a short film that will be part of the IOC presentation is 
being shot at various locations around New York. One of the segments will be 
shot in Brooklyn this coming Monday morning. Below are details from NYC2012. 
Anyone who is interested in participating should respond directly to the 
e-mail in the information below. Mention that you are being referred by Mike 
Millis at Gotham Networking.

I have been told that this film will really tug at the heartstrings of the 
IOC members. (The phrase "not a dry eye in the house" has been used.) So, if 
you are interested and available, come out to Brooklyn Heights Monday 
morning and participate. As Yogi always says, "It ain't over 'til it's 
over."

Thanks very much, Gotham.

Have a most excellent weekend.

Hope to see you in Brooklyn on Monday.
