The new E-PACE is the first compact SUV from Jaguar.

It’s a unique combination of looks, agility and dynamic driving.

With a driver-focused cockpit sitting at the heart of a family-focused interior, the E-PACE takes the rewarding Jaguar driving experience and adds everyday practicality. There’s never been a compact SUV like this before.

Thanks again to everyone that came out despite the snow!

We partnered with our friends from Artful Living Magazine and had an evening of hors d'oeuvres provided by CRAVE Catering and wine + beer and learned all about this exciting new Jaguar. 


There was a silent auction with all proceeds  benefiting Still Kickin

A couple exciting auction items included:

MartinPatrick 3 gift card | Hotel Landing luxurious staycation with the use of a Jaguar XJ | Brightwater, Clothing and Gear Parajumpers officialpage coat | Minnesota Twins tickets (Champions Club) | Fitbit | NFL Experience | Golden Valley Country Club round of 4 for golf!


Unfamiliar with Still Kickin?

Still Kickin started with a t-shirt.

A thrift store t-shirt Aaron Purmort bought when he was in high school. He was wearing this t-shirt the day he had a seizure. A seizure that turned out to be brain cancer. Really bad brain cancer. (We’re not saying some brain cancers are good, of course. Just that Aaron’s really sucked.)

The message on that green t-shirt became a motto of sorts for Aaron and his family — including his wife, Nora — during his three years of cancer treatment. Even random strangers on the internet were adopting the Still Kickin mantra (proof that not all online strangers are trolls).

Aaron had big plans to turn his Still Kickin t-shirt into something greater. Something that would help others. But cancer loves interfering with big plans. After her husband's death, Nora teamed up with her friend Lindsay, printed a few dozen copies of Aaron's favorite shirt, sold them like hotcakes and donated the proceeds to another family in need.

Guests were able to purchase their own Still Kickin' gear at the event!

A photo-booth experience was created by Selfie and Co. and guests participated in live, fashion illustrations by local artist Claire Ward with a portion of the proceeds to benefit Still Kickin.
