Avondale Haiti/Red Cross benefit a smashing success

More than 700 people showed up and raised more than $15,000 for the American Red Cross.  Oysters, burgers, BBQ and beer were flowing and crowds were buzzing.  A great time was had.

Emcee City Councilman Tim Mallard and Pearlz Manager Mike Olson give their reactions by the oyster steamers at the back of Triangle Char & Bar’s lot.

Pearlz, Triangle, Al Di La and their distributors donated time, food and drink for the event.

The outpouring of support led to long lines and, finally, closing the entrance gate to latecomers—all for a good cause.
