Millennium Restaurant VegNews Awards Ceremony

[Guest guest]

Dear Loyal Veggie Supporter,

 

On behalf of Millennium Restaurant & VegNews Magazine, you are invited to

celebrate the Most Veg-Friendly City in the country! Each year VegNews polls its

readers to name their favorite vegetarian businesses and people. San Francisco

triumphed this year in seven categories, and the recipients of these Veggie

Awards will be honored in an event co-hosted by VegNews & Millennium on

Wednesday February 9, 2005.

 

Join Mayor Gavin Newsom and host Julia Butterfly Hill in a celebration of San

Francisco being the most veg-friendly city in North America (we trumped New York

and Toronto!) as voted by thousands of VegNews readers in the world's largest

survey of vegetarian people, places, and products.

 

Receiving these awards is such an important accomplishment that it most

definitely calls for a BIG BASH! We invite you to join us in recognizing the

city's efforts and dedication to the vegetarian movement at San Francisco's

VegNews Awards Ceremony, to be held at Millennium Restaurant on Wednesday

February 9, 2005 from 5:30pm until 7:30pm.

 

The ceremony will be presided over by VegNews Publisher Joseph Connelly and

Circle of Life Founder Julia Butterfly Hill. We are happy to announce that Mayor

Gavin Newsom will be present to accept the award on behalf of the city. Guests

will be treated to delicious organic hors d'oeuvres, ample wine and champagne,

desserts, surprise favors, and an evening of fun and entertainment.

well as those accepting the awards on their behalf:
