"...We have had a relationship with EVP for five years now starting back when there were 4 events in 4 cities.....to see how EVP has developed over this time is very exciting and EVP offers at a grass roots level...the personality and culture of fun, sun, relaxing and getting away from it all which make it a great fit for Corona." - Timm

"Had a great meeting with the Mayor of Toledo. He is excited and about what we're doing and hopes to see a pro tour event here in a few years!!!" - Steve
"Ross, I wanted to shoot you a note regarding last weekends EVP tour stop... As you know we have been doing this a long time. Our player base is very solid and beach volleyball in Western and Central New York is as strong as ever. Having an event like yours here in Rochester further strengthens both Hot Shots leadership and the fan base. There has been a lot of talk about the summer event at Charlotte beach and the vibe generated from the indoor event was extremely positive. Johnny K couldn't have been a better fit with our clientele. From the pre event party on Friday, (by the way we sold a ton of Corona Light) to the finals on Saturday you both displayed a professional manner that not to many people I have dealt with over the last 20 years have been able to pull off. Of course those pictures at the Otter Lodge are available for a small fee. I assure you that they would be tastefully displayed on our web site should you ever decide not to make the stop in Rochester again. Last weekend gave me flash backs of the Tim Hovaland, Mike Dodd, Sinjin Smith exhibitions we used to hold. One again thank you for your support and making last weekend enjoyable. Looking forward to this summer." - JB
"We are airing the Miami show now, and I am very impressed. I hope the tour is going well". - Larry

"...just wanted to say Mahalo Nui Loa (Thank you very much) for a great tourney . . . To bad you cant come back for the rest of our tour through the islands : ), the other islands are so much more beautiful then Oahu, waikiki. Let me know if you need help with anything. Iam very happy to help when i can." - Chastity
"...Erin Strang is coming to Houston on April 13 to play in a local event with me. Then she is staying the next week- to the 20th- to train! I'm so excited to have a new VB buddy. Thank you for the opportunity to play EVP!" - Sam
"I saw on the website that the tour has expanded East, just as discussed at the post party in Chicago last year; that is fantastic. I also saw, Carlos, that you emailed about coming to Toronto. That is a great idea. I think the EVP would flourish here...I wanted to email you though and let you know that I am serious about the EVP and could definitely make a commitment to play--I love the format, I love the competition, I love the level of efficiency and organization, and I love the atmosphere both on the beach and at the post party." - Jason
"I was checking out the website for the EVP and it is awesome. I think it is much more user friendly and easier to navigate through...Nice Work" - Mike
"Also, I just saw the new EVP website...it looks GREAT!!! Very user friendly and very professional looking. Nice job!" - Angie
"I enjoy competing in this region; However I am anxious to compete at a higher level nationwide. The EVP would be able to provide me with that opportunity." - Jill
"Great tournament and after party this weekend...tons of fun!" - Makalani
"...thanks for the great tournaments you run! It was an enjoyable season!" - Jeanine
"I just wanted you to know that tour is looking fantastic this year. It's better then ever. I think one of the big differences this year is your staff. They are very professional and they do a great job. Things went very smooth in Chicago when you were gone, Diane showed everyone who the boss was and she did a great job!" - Kelly
"I wanted to drop you a short note regarding the EVP Tour. I truly feel that you & Diane have done an excellent job of developing the tour. The City Vs. City concept is a great competitive platform. My wife, Marjorie, and I are having a blast traveling with the tour recently, and we are committed to my playing as many Tour dates as possible in 2007, if not all of them. We want to wish you continued success with the EVP Tour as well as personally." - Jeremiah

Spectators/Fans:
"I wanted to send you an e-mail telling you how wonderful Raza, Iowana,
Cindy, Kelly and Dana were to work with on my "How To Beach Volleyball
Films". They were not only stunning girls (and Dana a hot guy) but all were
very nice and a pleasure to work with. Cindy went out of her way to make
sure that I understood the right terminology, motions, etc...and I overall I
was very impressed with their wonderful attitudes and level of athleticism.
Thank you very much for putting me in touch with them. I will let you know
when the videos are up on VideoJug." - Audrey
