Several events were held on the weekend and, naturally, our roving lens was there to capture them all. We have highlights from the Gambrill reception hosted at Grill 71, Thalia Lyn's dim sum reception and Ed Bartlett's Spanish Court Hotel celebratory reception. Sportsmax also celebrated with athletes and musicians at Rumble on Jamrock launch at Fiction last Thursday. Salut!
