DENVER, CO--(Marketwire - February 12, 2009) - Today, DC Brands International, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: DCBR) is proud to announce that due to the success and growing popularity of their own seminars held at their Wheat Ridge, Colorado headquarters, they have been invited by the head football coach of nearby regional powerhouse Legacy High School to speak to as many as 120 players with at least one parent each plus many of the faculty. The topics that will be covered include general nutrition, health, workout and fitness tips and of course what makes H.A.R.D. Nutrition so different. The company's Head Herbologist, Bob Nikkel, said, "Legacy's coach spent some time in our office last week and it would seem he left here a believer. It is interesting that at the same time, many products are being kicked out of schools because of their less than stellar nutritional value."

Nikkel continues, "We are pleased and honored to have been invited to speak with all of these parents and try to help in any way we can. Because this event will occur on next Wednesday night and is the only night we can meet with the parents and faculty, we will have to reschedule our regular Wednesday night seminars to Thursday night. Although dates have not been set yet, we have been asked to do the same type of road show seminar for three local fire houses and two police stations. This is a large part of our commitment to educating the public about what we are doing and hope to see these become regular events 4-5 nights a week."
