Dear Mr. Gimenez.
My name is Enrique kogan, and I produce the annual Argentinean festival in Miami.
Declared by The New Times `Best of Miami". Also, considered the largest
Argentinean Festival in the World outside of Argentina, and one of the best Latin
events at Bayfront park .
Due to the overwhelming number of Rock fans attendance at this year's
performance, we will be presenting another spectacular event, Sunday, November
10th, 2002, which will be called "ROCK IN MIAMI".
I would like to be invited to the City Meeting to make my personal
appearance, and request a reduction cost fortheBayfront Park, Police and Fire
Department.
I will need the support from the City of Miami this year to make the "ROCK IN
MiAMi" -event -a success.
Please feel free to call and ask the Bayfront Park any question regarding my
previous events.
I will be waiting for your reply on my request regarding the commission review.
in advance for your support.
