Light Up The Night!

I attended the Light Up The Night event this past Friday as a Cigar Rights of America (CRA) representative and had a great time! This was a charity event that benefited the Tampa Firehouse Museum, a worthwhile cause that I would encourage you to check out should you find yourself in downtown Tampa with a few hours to spare. Your kids will love it!

In addition to the wonderful jazz band that entertained us all evening and the great food, there were quite a few local cigar celebraties in attendance. Among them was the event host, Carlos Fuente Jr. and his lovely family along with Carlito and Cynthia Fuente. I had the opportunity to chat with all three for quite a while due to the intimate surrounding. Local radio celebrity Jack Harris from 970 WFLA was also in attendence and is as warm and genuine in person as he is on the radio.

Special thanks to everyone at Tampa Sweethearts for sponcering the event and for giving CRA the opportunity to educate everyone on what this great organization is doing to defend all our rights to enjoy our premium, hand-made cigars. If you haven't already joined CRA, I would like to strongly encourage you to do so as we're losing our rights a little bit every day. We have membership cards at our store and will be more than happy to further explain what a great organization it is and why you need to join the fight. Until next time - keep 'em lit!!
