Oakland Indie Awards This Friday!
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008Hi Everyone!
Just a quick reminder about the Oakland Indie Awards. The party is this Friday, May 2nd at Sweet’s Ballroom. We received over 300 nominations and our distinguished judging panel narrowed it down to 21 finalists. Winners will be announced at the event—come help us celebrate! You’ll get to taste Oakland wine, beer, chocolates, teas, gluten-free baked goods, Laotian treats, cajun bites, organic nut butters and so much more! Talk to hundreds of other Oakland lovers, and chill to Oakland tunes.
