Our Benefit Diner and Dance was held to raise funds
for Lake Havasu City Special Olympics. Highlights of the evening included live
Cajun music by musician Steve Hill , both live and silent auctions, and a
variety of raffles and fund-raising activities. The Cajun buffet prepared by the
Nautical Inn was delicious and Steve Hill's fiddle and music kept everyone on
the dance floor. At the end of the evening we had collected $9,350 for Special
Olympics, which was presented to Chris Bergen, Special Olympics Coordinator for
Lake Havasu City on March 10th during their competition event.
