Dear Virginia Cafe Family:

Happy 2008 everyone. I hope the new year has found all of you well. The brick sale was a huge success with us selling 246 bricks. The memories that have been immortalized on the floor of the New Virginia Cafe are going to be fantastic. I sent them off to the engraver this past week, with us beginning the installment of the bricks at the end of the month.

I can't thank you all enough for the wonderful support that you have showed us this past year for this event and wanting to be part of our continued future in downtown Portland.

Again, thank you and I will be in touch to keep all of you posted on our 'Moving Party' festivities.

Yours Truly,

Leah Douvris
