Come have a drink with me!

It’s that time of year when people start slinging drinks for charity and I’m one of them—tomorrow night, August 18, at DaVinci’s at Town Center Mall to benefit the Chamber’s Golden Bell Education Foundation.

There will be two teams of us and we’ll be competing against each other for the most donations raised. Team one is Boca Mayor Susan Haynie, Deputy Mayor Robert Weinroth and me. Team two is Weatherman Steve Glazier and News Editor Sam Kerrigan from Channel 12, and Bonnie Kaye, from Kaye Communications.

The event starts at 5:30, and we will be ready to order your cocktail, listen to your problems or talk about the weather—whatever your bartender preference. I hope you’ll stop by and buy a drink from me—because it really benefits our schools.

Created in 1991, the Golden Bell Education Foundation provides additional funds to area schools to offset shortfalls in state and federal budgets. Other goals include perpetuating innovative educational programs and supporting academic excellence to ensure that our students are afforded the best possible opportunity to achieve success in education. To date, Golden Bell has donated more than $1.2 million to our local public schools.

Come have a drink with me and bump up that number.

We’ll see you there!
