Bringing Sand to the Beach

Thursday night at L2, Luke’s Wings and friends (myself included) hosted a tribute to an endless summer of sun, fun and fit bikini bodies. Well, at least some of us got into the spirit and dressed the part!
Whether you watched classic beach flicks, tested out the surf simulator (it was HARD!), earned shots dipping under the limbo bar, or hula hooped your way through the crowd, this beach bash was one for the record books! And I’m proud to say that strutting around in my swimwear and dashing around for donations – there were about ten of us entered in the best beachwear contest – helped Luke’s Wings to raise an unconfirmed $2,000 or so. And it earned me $500 to Bloomingdale’s!! Thanks to all who pitched in that $5 vote to make me the beachwear winner!
I may not have conquered the Big Kahuna on a simulation surf board, but we all made a splash – and had a blast on the “beach” supporting our wounded soldiers. For more pictures from the event, check out the website of the fab photog Michael Domingo who also captured those pictured here.
