The servers of Belmont Shore's La Strada Restaurant will celebrate the launch of their pin-up calendar on Oct. 6.
La Strada owner Lisa Ramelow said that the "La Strada Pin-up Girls 2010 Calendar," retailed at $15.95, was inspired by a longtime customer who died of pancreatic cancer in 2008.
Richard Hollingsworth, who was president of Gateway Cities Partnership, was a regular customer at La Strada, dining there with his wife most every Friday night for 12 years. (His daughter, Aoife, 23, has worked as a La Strada server for five years.) He died a year after diagnosis at the age of 55.
Ten percent of proceeds go to PanCAN for pancreatic cancer research. Calendars are already on sale online or www.lastradaon2nd.com/shop or in-store.
The event will be from 7 to 10 p.m. at 4716 E. 2nd St.
