The company plans its first full production of all these items at the end of February.

Robert Corr, RushNet President commented: "The show went better than we expected, although we are always optimistic going into trade shows and try to make the most of these opportunities. At this show, and the upcoming Expo West in March, will be featuring our re-designed and newly expanded Organic Apple Rush 100% Juice line. The positive feedback we received on the look of the products, and the way they tasted, was impressive. Interest was strong in this line because no one else has Sparkling Organic 100% Juice in the dominant 12oz package. A number of chains indicated they would be authorizing the whole line, and we were also encouraged how much interest e-water created in this respect too. This show turned out to be a strong asset in getting our message out to retailers and developing new distribution for all our products. A number of RushNet investors visited us at the booth and we were heartened by their confidence in us and our products. We do our best to deliver on that trust."

e-water recently sponsored the $10,000 Half Court Money Shot at a benefit for the South Cook County Firemen's Fund on January 27. The Firemen lost to a team of the '85 Chicago Bears

It turned out to be a fun night for all at the well-attended event. The $10,000 e-water money shot was taken by Kevin Rickar who was selected from those in the audience who purchased raffle tickets for the Fireman's Fund. Unfortunately for Kevin it wasn't his night. He missed his half court shot, as did three Firemen, who were selected by their teammates to take the same shot for $500. All did walk away with an e-water t-shirt, cap and a case of water. We at RushNet, Inc. and e-water want to thank Kevin Ricker and the Fireman for a good effort on their shots. Photos of the event will be available soon on the RushNet website.

RushNet sees this as just the start of its venture into developing the Caribbean market. The company continues to develop its contacts in Jamaica, Trinidad/ Tobago, and Antigua as well as a number of other islands.

    Robert Corr stated: "Seeking export business has always been a priority for us, even though we always believed that our greatest potential is to market our products within the U.S. While attending a slew of trade shows over the last year we have found that there is a real interest from other countries in health-based products. We see a genuine need for our types of products globally and will continue to develop export business, as we are with e-water in Japan, as part of our overall growth plan."
