Record month again in revenue, with our first $100,000 gate, we take a bold step and prepare to launch a small internet based subscription service called ECW Fightcast. The cost will be $751,250 which will eat up almost all of our $759,164 reserve, but we will be able to expend the service into both Mexico and Canada as well as the US which will fit our aggressive growth strategy and tap a market that has yet to be fully explored. This will either put us on the fast track to National status or destroy the company, but the risk is worth it.
