served as waiters and waitresses.
Each year, the dinner supports a community organization, and was

increasing awareness of the disorder. Five Star produced public
service announcements to publicize the event, created a video
production that was shown to attendees, and provided a production
team to capture the evening's events.

Thanks so much for all you have done for us. The Ultimate Pool Tournament
was a tremendous success. Plan on our on-going support in the future.

I just wanted to take a quick moment to commend you on hosting one of the most outstanding events that I have attended in a long while. Every detail of the party had the "Five Star" stamp of quality on it - from the incredible food and beverages, to the outrageous decor; from the lively entertainment to the charitable functions; and from the professional staff to the world-class production facility. It was a truly GRAND opening that I was pleased to have attended.

I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of my firm to congratulate you on the success of the 1st annual Five Star Productions Pool Tournament and Charity Gala. The event was the most professionally organized charity event that I have ever attended. Based upon my discussions with others who attended the event, I am certain that I am not alone in my opinion.
I know that a great deal of effort went into the organization of the event but it was the attention to every detail that really impressed me. My firm was very happy to assist with with the sponsorship of the pool tournament and the exposure we received was excellent.
Thank you and your champagne for a wonderful evening. We look forward to next year.

What a Party!!! The magnitude of the event boggles The mind. It was huge!!! I have attended many parties here and in Los Angeles that were very impressive, but frankly, they pale in comparison. Every detail was perfect, and it seemed to come off without a glitch.
You showed the world that without a doubt, we have the resources, the creativity, the ability, and the energy to create a "world class" event in Florida. Again, it was truly amazing!!

Your invitation didn't overstate it. That was the Grand Opening for the next Millenium. Any others will have to be judged against it...and few if any will come close.
Little Richard out did himself. We're still singing and dancing.
So "Wop bobalooma awop bam boom." And thanks to everyone at Five Star for defining first class.

Just a note to thank you for a very enjoyable evening last Thursday.
The party was certainly a departure from the norm. I sure enjoyed
