AMERICANS ON THE MEND

For Immediate Release:

Presents

“DRIVING THE VOTE, BRIDGING THE GAP”
Concert
Featuring
Wildphyr
Other names to be announced

April 20, 2008
Festival Pier at Penn’s Landings in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

“We are not our government”
“We will make our government again”

OUR MISSION
To inspire young Americans to be a part of their political process. To help them understand that it is their government and they have a voice. That America began as and still is “We the people! By the people! For the people!” - Realize the best way to create positive change at home and abroad is to exercise your right to vote, speak out and make a difference.
The show, “Americans on the Mend”, is a non-partisan event to encourage young Americans support the democratic process and express their freedoms by voting and / or registering to vote. The show includes political speakers, bands and other talents from all genres. Sponsors such as “The Association of Diversity in Motor Sports”, “Rock the Vote”, and political candidates will have representatives delivering their message throughout the venues.
“Americans on the Mend”, founded by Griffin Stewart in Los Angeles, CA, is continuing to build momentum after completion of its tour though Los Angeles, Cleveland, Toledo, Columbus and now has reached the political hotbed of Philadelphia. Griffin, a Philadelphia area native, is quoted; “voting is a choice that we make as individuals that connects us to our communities and to our country. It is our freedom to challenge our elected representatives to enact on the will of the people.” Griffin has spent the last few years developing the band Wildphyr which organized the show in Los Angeles to helped boost voter turnout for the Super Tuesday elections in California. Recent speakers at our events include Rev Michael Beckwith from the movie “The Secret” and Councilman Eric Garcetti of Los Angeles.
“Americans on the Mend” has been working with the campaigns to reach all Americans to help make a choice in this import historical election.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

THE ASSOCIATION FOR DIVERSITY IN MOTORSPORTS KICKS OFF
“DRIVING THE VOTE, BRIDGING THE GAP”

Association For Diversity in Motorsports promotes educating the youth in achieving professional opportunities in Motorsports.

(Greensboro, NC) -- The Association For Diversity In Motorsports (AFDIM) and Infinity Business Affiliates INC., will be traveling throughout the country to various Motorsports and political venues, registering new voters and educating various groups about the business/career opportunities and family entertainment found in Motorsports.
This 2008 “Driving The Vote, Bridging The Gap” voter awareness drive gives AFDIM, with the assistance of strategic Corporate sponsors, the chance to make Motorsports fans a “voice to be heard” on social issues as well as expands the opportunity to become Professionals in Motorsports, for a more diverse community of youth. In the media, we always hear about the “Soccer mom”. AFDIM and its partners now believe, it’s time for the “Motorsports Mom and Dad” to have a voice.
We will have “Driving The Vote, Bridging The Gap” booths at various Motorsports sponsored races. Also, as we travel across the country, we will have representatives from local/national civic and political groups, celebrities, corporations and media outlets appear in support of our drive. From NASCAR to Drifting, “We will be voters encouraging new voters to register until the deadline for the 2008 Presidential election. After the voter registration deadline we will be reminding people to vote in November”, said Wayne Clapp, Executive Director of AFDIM.
The “Driving The Vote, Bridging The Gap” voter registrations drive will not stop after the November 2008 Presidential election. This database of new politically active Motorsports fans and other individuals that pledge their support will be followed-up with electronically or by mail with our monthly newsletter highlighting racing news and whatever social issues our readers say are the most important to them. We will then inform the rest of the community on the issues of importance and how, together, we can lend our voice or letters to effect change.

Throughout the year we will be fundraising through concerts and fun entertainment racing events in order to lend a hand to our racing community. Through this effort we hope to bring the existing Motorsports family together and bring new Motorsports fans into our community; all the while, making sure that every voice is accounted for and heard.
We reach out to our corporate community for sponsorship and donations, for information in how to donate funds to our cause or to receive information on how to become a sponsors at one of many events that we will a part of such as Formula Drift, NASCAR, Indy cart, Formula 1, etc… Contact David Resendes, Director of Marketing, Executive Board of Directors AFDIM at info@one2infiniti.com.
The racing community consists of all types and varieties of individuals and corporations making up the fabric of the United States, yet when it comes to social issues, we are left behind. “It is now time to Bridge the Gap in Motorsports”, said Dave Resendes, President of Infinity Business Affiliates, INC.

"RED"

A Philadelphia Premiere, 2007

Saturday, September 8th, 2007
Two performances at 2:00 & 8:00 PM

Concert Hall, Independence Seaport Museum
Penn's Landing, Philadelphia.

Your eye is caught by a single color, RED. It is inescapable and compelling as senses are triggered and emotions aroused. When this color becomes the defining point of a relationship, one is caught up in whirlwind of seduction, passion, anger, romance and joy. Ultimately this color journey leads us to an empowering view of who we are and what is truly possible. Music and Motion Dance's new work RED, offers us an intimate look at relationships through the medium of movement, luscious visual imagery, differing human temperaments and undeniable beauty of self-discovery.

Purchase tickets on line at

A portion of ticket sales will go to the
The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria

Tonight: Cry-Baby on the Riverfront

Tonight at The Great Plaza at Penn's Landing will be one of the showcase events of the Philadelphia International Gay and Lesbian Film Festival, a showing of Cry-Baby by that crazy director, John Waters.

The screening starts at 9.15p [right about when it gets dark enough to show a projection at night these days], but there's a Drag King/Johnny Depp look-a-like contest at 8.45p beforehand. Admission is free and it's sure to be a hell of a time.

I'll most likely be heading over there tonight, but my buzzcut will prevent me from rocking a greaser 'do, but I'm sure others there will more than make up. Hopefully, the weather will hold up.
