Long Walks on the Beach...

I suppose a long walk on the beach can be enjoyable, relaxing and romantic even.  Miami did get rated as the 4th most romantic city in the US by Amazon.

However, if this staple isn't quite your idea of a date but you do enjoy the views Miami has to offer and maybe you and your sig other are into dates that are a little more active, we think we've found the hottest date in town.

Hirooka Surf and Sport offers paddlesurfing lessons, as well some pretty cool other activities, and they are conveniently located in South Beach, behind the Gansevoort Hotel.



One reason RFS loves Hirooka Surf and Sport, besides that they donated to the Rally for Kids for their Poker and Pool tourney, is that they are offering couples paddlesurfing lessons and have even aided some creative individuals in proposing to their special someones.  Check out their video below!




Yea, we know, AWESOME!

Rally for Kids Pool and Poker Tournament at STK

Rally for Kids, a charity that benefits kids with cancer, (which has some heavy hitting endorsers like Eva Longoria and Gene Simmons) held a fund raising event last night that we were privileged enough to participate in.  Here are some pics from the night, a pool and poker tournament coupled with Grey Goose at STK in the Gansevoort.  



Joel Hock, founder, speaking about the Rally and upcoming events. 



Winners received donated gifts from the Gansevoort and Grey Goose.  


RFS was able to hold our own contest.   We had all of the charitable competitors and spectators guess the carat weight of nine of our FAVORITE RFS engagement rings.  Whoever came the closest won a set of hand cut, amethyst in 14k gold earrings.

We'll be donating a FABULOUS ring for the Road Race and Auction in April, and make sure to check out the Rally for Kids website to find out how you can donate!
