February kicks off our first month of our new "Shirt of the Month" promotions where we'll select one of our favorite shirts to discount 25% and send to you with no shipping charges! This month we start things off with one of our most popular T-shirts ... an excluxive artist collaboration that we did with house music legend Donald Glaude!

Donald sat down with our designer Jon Phenom and founder Jason Herrick to discuss what elements he would like to bring to life in his own signature T-shirt. Donald’s love for music and the tools he uses to create tracks in the studio along with thoughts of nostalgia for his love of the cassette tape was at the forefront of the discussion. After a few sessions we finally brought everything together into a design that we are all very proud of and excited to share with you on both the T-shirt and CD.

Now is your chance to get this Exclcusive T-Shirt and mixed CD for a great low price so don't miss out!

Get discounted rooms in Miami when you join the Fortune Family at the Essex Hotel for WMC or  ULTRA 2011!

Well after we completed a survey to see which week more of our friends are going to be out in Miami this year it appears that it is an even 50/50 split. So we made the decision to do our best to maintain the same experience many have had the last 5 years with 421 in Miami. So whether you are going out for WMC week or ULTRA week we’ve got you covered with our group discount rate at the Essex Hotel. Many of you stayed there the last year or two and hopefully had as great of an experience as I did. Besides the central location behind the Clevelander Hotel on 10^th & Collins, the Essex House staff really takes care of us like family. And since they are operated by the same people as the Clevelander we have an all access wristband to all the events going on there during the weeks. If you haven’t seen the property please take a second to go to: http://essexhotel.com/ and check it out…they were upgraded to a 3.5 Star Property last year. It’s a great place to call home for the week and even better because it will be with the Fortune crew and at such a great rate!!

Below are the current rates that they are offering us until the beginning of February. Basically you’ll have a week to get your rooms booked at this rate and then afterwards it may go up a little but they are still going to honor a discounted rate for our entire group until everything fills up. All that you will need to pay for right now to hold the reservation is 1 nights stay + tax. You have a 14 day cancelation policy so if something comes up you have until 2 weeks before your stay to back out.

Important notes:

-There is a 3 night minimum required to book at this hotel during WMC week and ULTRA week.

-There are only 12 or so rooms that have double beds so if you need to get a room then with 2 beds in it then you better ACT FAST!

-There are about 8 suites…they only have 1 bed but are very spacious with a couch & Jacuzzi tub! It’s a very nice!!

-Rollaway beds are available upon request for a $59 fee for the entire stay and can only be used in the Suite’s

RESERVATIONS:

Using the discount code FORTUNE421 reservations are to be made via phone to 800-815-6829, 305-532-4006 ext. 3562 (Monday to Saturday – 9am to 5:30p Eastern) or via email to nmedina@clevelander.com

- If reservations are made via email, please provide the following information: First and last name of the guest, number of people in room, arrival and departure dates, number of rooms and credit card to guarantee and process 1 night room and tax deposit.

FORTUNE EVENTS: So beings that we could not make the decision to go one week over the other we have decided to be out there for both weeks! We’ll be throwing our House of Fortune event at the Clevelander’s 1020 Music Boxx on Thursday night of both weeks. So mark your calendars for Thursday March 10^th for House of Fortune WMC edition and for Thursday March 24^th for House of Fortune Ultra edition.  Please help spread the word about all the Fortune fun in Miami this year!

Looking forward to another great time in Miami…twice! Hope to see you there! Much love & 421

HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM ALL OF US AT FORTUNE INDUSTRIES!

We would like to thank everyone that participated in our 4th Annual Bowling for Turkey event and Industry Tournament on Tuesday, November 16th at East Village Tavern + Bowl.  The event was a tremendous success and raised $2,338 for the StandUp For Kids organization.  This money will be respectfully used to host a Thanksgiving Day Dinner for San Diego’s homeless teens and to help out with their general needs throughout the holiday season.

With 34 teams competing in the tournament this year and a large amount of spectators, we had an amazing turn out of over 150 of San Diego’s bar and nightlife personnel.  We were able to give prizes away to the four highest scoring teams, the top three individual scores, the two most spirited teams (best uniforms) and to the six players that bowled a turkey (three strikes in a row) thanks to the gift donations from many of the restaraunts, bars & nightclubs from around San Diego. (see list below)

A speical thanks to Svedka Vodka and Red Bull Energy Drink for helping out with our drink special.  We also would like to make a big thanks to DJ’s FishFonics, DeVoy, Cheyenne Giles and Chirs Liosi for donating their time behind the turntables and providing the music for everyone's entertainment.  Thanks to the four StandUp for Kids representatives that were able to come observe all of the support and action on the lanes. And finally a enourmous thank you to East Village Tavern + Bowl for donating the shoes and lanes for the evening and making this all possible!

If you were not able to attend but still would like to give back to homeless teens in San Diego this holiday season please visit the StandUp for Kids website at www.standupforkids.org

Have a Happy Thanksgiving and safe travels as you visit your loved ones this week. Remember it is our family, friends & life experiences that really makes us rich and brings a true FORTUNE into our lives!

Much love & 421

Tuesday November 16th join us for .... BOWL! BOWL! BOWL! TURKEY! TURKEY! TURKEY!                                   

Fortune Industries will be hosting our 4^th Annual Bowling for Turkey event and Industry Tournament on Tuesday, November 16^th at 9:30pm. This event is a fundraiser for the StandUp For Kids Organization with 100% of the proceeds going towards homeless teens of San Diego and their Thanksgiving Day Dinner.  This event will be a fun filled night of bowling, music, drink specials and prizes taking place at East Village Tavern + Bowl in Downtown San Diego.  This is an opportunity to have a great time with your staff during the holiday season while giving back to the community!

StandUp For Kids is an organization committed to finding, stabilizing and otherwise helping homeless youth improve their lives.  The focus of this organization includes not only outreach, but deterrence through resource programs in schools and via the internet.  They are able to carry out their mission through the help of volunteers and through events like Bowling for Turkey. 

The tournament itself is made up of teams of four with an entrance fee of $80.  Prizes will be awarded for the highest individual score, highest team score, bowling a turkey (3 strikes) as well as the most spirited team.  So don’t hesitate to show your team pride with costumes, matching t-shirts, etc.  If you would like to show up for the event to cheer your favorite team but not bowl we have a $10 suggested donation at the door. 

Lastly, we are currently collecting prize donations from the bar and nightclub industry to award the winners. Any amount of gift certificate, bottle service or other service that your establishment is willing to offer would be greatly appreciated. These donations are tax deductable and we can give you a tax id upon request.

To enter a team or make donations please text Jason at 619.708.0421 or email jason@fortune421.com before Monday November 15^th.
