DC Kimpton Hotel Garden Party to Benefit the Trust for Public Land

    NEWS RELEASE

    Washington, DC: Calling all eco-conscious Washingtonians! Get outdoors for a great cause at the 'Kimpton Hotels Garden Party,' on Wednesday, July 9 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. The "green" cocktail benefit will be held at Poste Moderne Brasserie's newly expanded "Garden"-the popular outdoor courtyard, tucked away behind the bustling restaurant. The event will support The Trust for Public Land (TPL), the only national nonprofit dedicated to conserving land for public recreation and enjoyment. TPL has protected more than 2.4 million acres including over 100,000 acres in the Chesapeake Region alone.

    Guests will be treated to tastes from Chef Robert Weland's newly launched Garden Menu, which features simple, casual fare using organic and sustainable ingredients. At the Garden Party, guests will be invited to tour Chef's outdoor garden filled with organic herbs and vegetables as well as a 'tomato forest' of in-season heirloom tomato plants.

    To complement the fresh garden fare, Poste's award-winning mixologist Rico Wisner will shake up eco-chic liquid libations featuring Square OneTM Organic Vodka. The specialty cocktails will be offered at happy hour prices ($5), and all proceeds will be donated to TPL. Guests can bid on the chance auction to win a variety of green-themed prizes including weekend getaways at Kimpton's eco-friendly hotels.

    There will be a $10 door admittance fee for the event, which will include tickets for two complimentary cocktails and Garden hors d'oeuvres. All proceeds from admission fees, specialty drinks and auction items will go directly to The Trust for Public Land. To RSVP or for more information, call 202-661-2707 or e-mail aileen.deluna@kimptonhotels.com. Poste Moderne Brasserie is housed in the Hotel Monaco Washington DC, and is located at 555 8th St, NW, within a block of the Gallery Place Metro Station.

    The Garden Party is jointly hosted by Kimpton Hotels' seven DC properties, including Hotel Palomar Washington DC, Hotel Helix, Hotel Rouge, Topaz Hotel, Hotel Madera, Hotel George and Hotel Monaco Washington DC. The event is part of Kimpton's nationwide campaign to raise money for TPL's Parks for People initiative. Kimpton has always held a strong, eco-friendly outlook throughout all levels of the organization, which includes a sense of responsibility, appreciation and care for the planet. The Trust for Public Land partnership-and Kimpton's EarthCare initiative as a whole-demonstrates the company's unyielding commitment to making a difference for the environment on a local, national and global level.
