On Saturday, Marc Ecko hosted an incredible event in his NY Showroom and executive office and I'd love to get a mention. From 6 -10pm on Saturday, March 7th, we had the largest gathering of wounded troops  from the Northeast for an evening of networking and prizes with the Wounded Warrior Project.  We gave away 25 door prizes ranging from an ATV, to signed memorabilia from WWE's John Cena, Boxing champion Miguel Cotto, NY Giants Brandon Jacobs, NJ Nets Devon Harris, NY Mets John Maine, supermodel Marisa Miller, Kanye West and Kobe Bryant, along with Sopranos items. We also had tickets to tapings of Iron Chef America and Sesame Street, and $1500 towards groceries from Western Beef supermarkets. A guest, Mitch Modell, came armed with $25.00 gift cards to Modell's for everyone as well, so no one left empty handed. Members of the NY Jets Flight Crew was on hand to perform (Marc Ecko designed their uniforms this year), along with music by DJ Miss Saigon and DJ Logic. Celebrity guests that came to show their support were Tony Sirico and Lorraine Bracco from The Sopranos, and Daryl McDaniel (DMC) from Run DMC.]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.marceckoenterprises.com/current-news-events/rss-comments-entry-3290590.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>Marc Ecko Launches Global Ad Campaign</title><category>Be Unlimited Ad Campaign</category><dc:creator>Marc Ecko Enterprises</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 27 Jan 2009 22:46:59 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.marceckoenterprises.com/current-news-events/2009/1/27/marc-ecko-launches-global-ad-campaign.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">273777:2780569:2914938</guid><description><![CDATA[<p>&nbsp;<strong>(NEW YORK, NY)</strong>&nbsp; January 21, 2009 &ndash; Marc Ecko Enterprises, the innovative&nbsp;global fashion and lifestyle company best known for its iconic Rhino and the&nbsp;*ecko unltd brand, has announced the launch of a new global ad campaign titled,&nbsp;&ldquo;Be Unlimited.&rdquo; The campaign is scheduled for February release in targeted&nbsp;lifestyle print outlets, television, point of sale at Ecko stores and select Ecko&nbsp;retailers, as well as an online component.
