RACE FOR A CAUSEThe Leukemia & Lymphoma Society
Last week I attended a wonderful event but realized I've lived in Los Angeles for almost 21 years and have never been to The Pacific Dining Car in Santa Monica. You could say it's a best kept secret, but the old school decor and family style ambiance is where the likes of Steven Spielberg, Tom Cruise and many other Hollywood heavy weights have come to enjoy a great meal without being bombarded by paparazzi. It's also the place where The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society has an open door policy to hold their fundraisers like the recent kick off party for The Man & Woman of the Year Campaign. Wes Idol, who owns this 4th generation family establishment has no problem opening his doors for a great cause. The restaurant makes a perfect venue for any event.
What's next...Wes will continue to spearhead the campaign for LLS, a fundraiser for the next 10 weeks to see who can raise the most money and become the next man and woman of the year. Each dollar raised counts as one vote. On May 14th the charity will celebrate the winners and everyone else who devotes their time and effort to finding a cure. The grand finale event will be held at The Ritz Carlton in Marina del Ray.
Tickets are on sale now at for the grand finale party at the websites listed below.

Keep the smiles coming.........
