Proceeds from the event will be used to support the second annual visit to our City by wounded, ill and injured soldiers and their families. Last year the LBWW;s organization helped give sixteen families a few days of rest and relaxation here in Long Beach, and this year they plan to host almost thirty families from July 25 through 29, 2010.City Council Member John McLaughlin, who spearheaded the project last year, was on hand to greet guests at Lola's, who each donated $50 for food, drink, entertainment and a chance to win raffle prizes.

Thank you everyone who attended the Long Beach Waterfront Warriors First fundraiser of the season. It was another success thanks to your participation. A great big thanks to Marco and the staff at Lola's for a fantastic job and for donating the venue/food/drinks/time and services, we cannot have these events without the huge contribution of our local business owners. Thank you also to Brian Monahan and The Big Kahuna for providing the entertainment and of course, to our volunteers who continue to come out.
This is still a work in progress, we will need many hands to help us continue to do the good work we do. Representatives from Long Beach are heading to Walter Reed Medical Center this week to assess the needs of some of our wounded soldiers and to invite them to spend some time with us in our City by the Sea. We still need housing and volunteers.
