NYC Throwdown Recap

Becca Fisher 
Claire Miller 
and Sarah Leslie (Think Baristas) competed in the NYC Throwdown “Rosettas for Relief” on February 25, 2010.

The competition raised over $2,000 in donations for Rebati, a program developed to provide mental health care to survivors of the earthquake in Haiti.

Sarah Riley filmed competitor’s latte art live
and streamed the event online. 50 people logged in to check out the event, and there were 100 coffee community folks in attendance.

A great time was had by all 
while outside the snow was falling! There were endless buckets of Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale. At the night’s end, we left a steamy storefront and found streets covered in snow. Thanks to Joe for hosting the event, and Sam Penix for putting it together.

Thanks to Neil Oney for capturing the night in photographs!
