Media Event

While we weren't able to raise the tower, we still had a very successful media kick-off event. I recently got great pictures back from the event from the photographers at Chrysler. Below are some of the highlights. Unfortunately, weather still has been uncooperative and we have had to postpone the raising two more times. We are now hoping to put it up April 3rd.
