Fundraiser For Keith Brooks At Chef Fred's





H.O.P.E. (Helping Others Produce Events pulled off another successful fundraiser, this time for Keith Brooks. The event was held at Chef Fred's with multiple Bands, free food and discounted drink prices on Sunday.

There was a silent auction as well as a live auction to help raise money for Keith. We stated at the beginning of the year that this year was going to be about giving back and wouldn't you know it, people supporting numerous causes have been giving from their hearts in order to help those less fortunate and we're pleased to bring such events to your attention.

Eric Morris, (founder of H.O.P.E.) couldn't be there yesterday because he got into an argument with a skateboard and lost, BIG! The poor guy broke his ankle and while he said it was OK for me to show a picture of it, I'll save you the horror of what it looked like immediately after he broke it.

So to Keith and Eric, get well my friends and let's have a VICTORY Party after all this is said and done with. Thanks for coming everyone and thanks for your support. H.O.P.E. is doing some wonderful things for some wonderful people.

Oh, I can't forget to thank our friend Fred! He opened his doors on a Sunday and opened his entire facility for this event from 2:00 PM till...... You're a good man Fred and I'll not forget this and hopefully no one else will wither. By the way Folks, for the absolute BEST All-You-Can-Eat Lunch, Chef Fred's is second to NONE!

To ALL of the Bands, thank you!

The benefit was for Keith's wife, Val, who suffered an aneurysm several weeks ago and doesn't have medical insurance to cover the huge bills.
