WELCOME

TO

ERIE PARTY 2002!

Five years ago a small group of very talented individuals got together to create a very special event. Since the founding of Lake Erie Productions we have been dedicated to the funding of HIV/AIDS related institutions. With our uplifting events we nurture the connection between individuals through the medium of music and dance. We wanted to create an experience built on a foundation of love, unity, and charity. eriePARTY became that experience. We are proud to again be working side by side with the AIDS Taskforce and Dancin' in the Streets.

Several AIDS organizations doing incredible work will benefit from the magic that is eriePARTY 2002. Nationally, amfAR a leader in HIV/AIDS research and technical support (with funding coming directly to Cleveland) and locally the AIDS Taskforce of Greater Cleveland providing HIV/AIDS services and prevention education. Even the Open House, which was a beneficiary in the past, is now a part of the AIDS Taskforce.

From the beginning, eriePARTY has been like no other event in the country with the experience being nothing less than extraordinary. That foundation of love, unity, and charity will be evident as soon as you enter eriePARTY 2002. From the artistic décor and mesmerizing lighting to the incredible musical style of Warren Gluck we hope every element of this weekend leaves you feeling lifted.

From the depths of my heart and soul, thank you for being here and lots of love to those of you who have worked so hard to make this event a success for the last 5 years. We want to see you for many years to come, so please keep eriePARTY special by remembering to party responsibly and play safe!
