      In rural Nanjing we have already raised 3k rmb and will raise more. Hammer is bringing in another book of tickets later today. Jimmy’s is also doing to donate 10% of our sales on July 2nd (should be a big night of biz because World Cup quarter finals will be on). We will also be holding an auction the same night with random dinners, hotel stays, Cases of Beer and any thing else we can get our hands on from local business’s to raise money for Geoff and his family. Would be great if some of the guys from Shanghai could make the trip for the event. Any new word on how Geoff is doing?
