Press Release Body = To introduce their new Club Technology to the citizens of the
Tri-County Metropolitan Detroit area, the Friends of Detroit and Tri-County will
host their First Annual Cookout and Bazaar on August 4th and 5th.

Club Technology is located in a landmark building at 8230 East Forest Avenue in
Detroit. The entire west side of the building is a mural painted by local residents
and symbolizing the cultures and heritage of Detroit. The mural is so distinctive
that when people refer to the building they can be heard saying, "meet you at the
wall."

In addition to Club Technology, the building houses the Friends of Detroit and
Tri-County and the Multicultural Community Partnership. These two organizations are
sponsoring the event along with Cool & Associates, a global consulting firm in
Waterford, and the Multicultural Business Council, a global commerce organization
based in Rochester Hills.

The event will offer an open house to show the community the classrooms, meeting
rooms, and computer rooms now available. Additional offerings include a craft
bazaar, cookout, arts and crafts for children, games, and family entertainment.
Vendor tables will feature the talents of local artists and chefs along with
products and services of interest for a multicultural community.

Ms. Lillie Wimberley, President of the Friends of Detroit and Tri-County, is excited
about showing others the facilities. "You can see the talented craftsmanship of
this neighborhood by the wonderful work they have done revitalizing this building,"
she comments. Once a manufacturing facility, the building is now completely revamped
into a learning facility of classrooms and a fully equipped kitchen.

Vendor tables are being offered for a total of $75 for the two-day event and can be
reserved by contacting the Multicultural Business Council at 248-802-6138 or on
their web site, www.mbcglobal.org.
