CK Holiday Party

On Saturday night, Marcus and I went to the annual CooperKatz holiday party.  It was an awesome little club with fan-freaking-tastic food.  Check it out, but caution, you will start drooling:  Tre Dici Steak

Marcus was really looking forward to the event- put on a special bow-tie and everything ;)

It was dark inside so the pictures didn't turn out, but it was so cute



Every year, all the employees are given a gift.  (Last year was the model cars, and) this year was a little different.  They were all given a handmade New York City hat that was designed specifically for them, all through the company Hats for Health.  Ralph Katz had seen these hats, met the lady who makes them, and commissioned one for each person.  He gave her a few details about them, she made each one personally, deciding the type of hat, colors, and insignias.  And all the proceeds from her business are donated to a fund for leukemia.  It was really neat, for lack of a better word.  It had been a tough year with Andy Cooper passing away from cancer this year, and this was a beautiful way to honor his memory and celebrate everyone at CK.  Ralph presented each one at the party and said a few things about why he appreciated every employee.  He also wrote each person a personal note, which I know Marcus will treasure his forever.  The people at CK are inspiring, such kind and generous people.  What an amazing company!
