Support the City's USMC Batallion

Eat at Buffalo Wild Wings and support the committee

The Marines were out in force on Memorial Day helping at the Beach and Tennis Club (see pictures). They're part of the Law Enforcement Battalion stationed at Fort Pendleton and the City has adopted them. Volunteers from the City help raise food for the holidays, hold parties for expectant wives, and otherwise work to make their lives more meaningful. In return, the Marines are a big asset to the City. They come to our Special Needs dances, are a big hit at the 4th of July parade, and attend lots of other city events. It's a win-win situation.

You can support the committee by eating at Buffalo Wild Wings tonight (Wednesday) and tomorrow night. 15% of the proceeds will go to the Committee. Please print out this flyer and bring it with you.

Lake Forest is a great place to live and part of what makes us a great City is the work of our volunteers. Come tonight and support them.
