Magnificent Celebration for Magnificent Desolation!

It was an "out of this world" celebration for members of The Echelon Club who honored Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, one of the first men to set foot on the moon, at the 40th Anniversary Dinner of the Apollo 11 Moon Landing.

The memorable affair was held at Los Angeles' prestigious Regency Club Penthouse Ballroom and was hosted by Baroness Kimberly Moore, founder of LA's highest society club, Echelon. A gathering of The Echelon Club members honored Mr. Aldrin's legendary achievement and celebrated his New York Times best selling book, Magnificent Desolation: Long Journey Home from the Moon. Mr. Aldrin was supported by his lovely wife Lois Aldrin, Barbara Davis, widow of billionaire Marvin Davis; Nikki Haskell, creator of “StarCaps” celebrity diet system; along with many other top industry leaders presented at the event. All guests received a signed copy of Magnificent Desolation courtesy of Borders Book store.

It was a starry night for guest overlooking the penthouse rooftop as they sipped Lunar Martinis provided by Grey Goose Vodka, moon dusted with real silver flakes. In keeping up with the moon theme, Luna Vineyards provided a fabulous tasting from their outstanding collection of wine selected by visionary wine maker Mike Moone.

The Echelon Club presented a 10 minute movie of the Apollo 11 Moon Landing and had the tremendous honor to listen as Buzz Aldrin shared his remarkable story. Baroness Moore says, "Buzz Aldrin is an inspiration to us all! The Apollo 11 Moon Landing was a monumental achievement which brought Americans together and gave us the belief that we as humans can accomplish the impossible." The festivities concluded with a roar of laughter as the audience was surprised with the debut music video for the new song, "Rocket Experience" featuring Astronaut Buzz Aldrin rapping with legendary music artist, Snoop Dogg!
