Nice to meet everyone, albeit electronically. Looking forward to a long and rewarding online association. I'm Heidi J. Diamond, Partner, Taste of DC. My partner, Steuart Martens, and I are re-launching this heritage event that will take place October 8, 9 and 10, 2011, and will be held on the famed Pennsylvania Avenue from 12th Street to 3rd Street. We've just announced GROUPON as our Title Sponsor. We're currently seeking corporate sponsorship and welcome any and all interest, thoughts, ideas and the like. Keen to work together with many in creating ideal brand building activations. Coming soon: we'll be reaching out to secure restaurants wishing to participate in this heritage event. Looking forward to working together with all. A bit of background about myself and Steuart. Steuart Martens is co-owner of Tradewinds Specialty Imports, specializing in wine from Spain and Argentina. He's also owner of On the Fly food trucks. Steuart has a long and illustrious career in the food, wine and hospitality industry. I'm former President, Television, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia. I've served in many senior executive positions with cable networks including Food Network, AMC, We, FUSE, Channel One, Nickelodeon and Nickelodeon, UK. Keen to get to know many! Tastefully yours, Heidi J. Diamond (heidi@thetasteofdc.org; 202 618 FOOD (3663)).
