Expo 2004's Urban Idol Winner Tara Walker

Tara Walker, who nailed the Expo's first ever Urban Idol competition, has entered two other competitions and needs our support.  She writes:

"Showtime At the Apollo is on Tour. On April 30, 2005, at 8pm, I will be at The Cerritos Performing Arts Center, in Cerritos, CA, competing at the Showtime At the Apollo on Tour Contest. I will be competing for a chance to be flown to New York City, NY to appear on Showtime At the Apollo in Harlem, NY.  To get tickets, you can go to the website: www.cerritoscenter.com or call 562-916-8500.

Also, Kraft Foods is giving a gospel competition.  I made the top 10 of the first judging period.  This stage of the competition requires for the contestants to get votes off the internet.  You can go to the website: www.kraftfoods.com/gospel  and click on "Vote" at the top left of the page.  Then you must provide your email address and register by
answering some questions.  Once registered, scroll down the page.  I'm the very
last person, but the last shall be first! Before, selecting Tara, you can hear and view a 1 minute video of me singing. Then, select Tara and submit your vote!  Also, you are allowed one vote per day per email address. 
Please, vote everyday through Wednesday April 13th.

Thank you and the entire staff of the Black Business Expo for
everything.
"
