WHAT:     In preparation for the holiday season's events and
          festivities, Los Angeles area children, ages 6-12, will
          participate in a "Petite Protocol" etiquette class at the
          legendary Hotel Bel-Air.  This is the only program of its
          kind offered in Los Angeles.  The program is uniquely
          designed for children and will explain proper etiquette for
          parties, meals and special events.  We invite you to join
          certified and internationally recognized etiquette
          instructor Diane Diehl as she teaches children about the art
          of introductions, proper telephone manners, the correct way
          to eat foods that are difficult or unusual (including fish,
          shrimp, caviar, asparagus, soup), proper table manners and
          holiday traditions/customs around the world.  The children
          will even step into The Bel-Air kitchen to learn about
          proper kitchen manners and food preparation with the Bel-Air
          Executive Chef Douglas Dodd.  In the kitchen, the children
          will also decorate desserts that they will be served at the
          end of their meal.

WHEN:     Saturday, November 8, 2003 from 9:30 a.m. to 2:15 p.m.

WHO:      Eleven children, ages 6-12, from Los Angeles and
          surrounding communities, will participate in a half-day
          program designed by Hotel Bel-Air and renowned etiquette
          instructor Diane Diehl.

WHY:      Good manners never go out of style.  Today's families are
          increasingly jet set and most parents are opting to travel
          with their children, be it for vacation, holidays or
          business.  As a result, an increasing number of parents are
          interested in helping their children learn and practice
          proper etiquette to prepare them for current and future
          social and business situations.
