Long Beach Police Foundation, restaurant chain to raise funds for relay team

| | Comments (0) |
LONG BEACH -- Are you in desperate need of garlic fries?
Have you been salivating at the thought of slow-roasted lamb?
Feel free to feed your craving at any George's Greek Cafe Thursday knowing it's in the name of charity.
That's because the Long Beach Police Foundation and the popular family-owned chain of restaurants are hosting a fundraiser with 20 percent of the proceeds from any food or beverage purchased between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m. will be donated to the Long Beach Police Department's 2012 Baker to Vegas Challenge Cup Relay team.
Just say you're there to support the Police Foundation and Baker to Vegas team at any of the three restaurants -- 5252 Faculty Ave., in Lakewood; or 135 Pine Ave. and 5316 E. Second St., in Long Beach.
The 28th Annual Baker to Vegas relay, or B2V, sees teams of runners start 25 miles north of Baker, CA, on Highway 127, and finish inside the Hilton Hotel Convention Room in Las Vegas.
