On December 5th, 2007 the LAPD Devonshire PALS hosted its annual award luncheon and Board installation at the Porter Ranch Country Club. Following a delicious lunch and some truly extraordinary desserts, Lorraine New, President of Devonshire PALS, gave out awards and acknowledgements to those who helped PALS really take major strides in delivering after school programs to kids and in raising funds for the new Youth Center.
Guest speakers included Officer Liz Sandoval, Captain Kane and Greg Baker who outlined the successful capital campaign that has just about hit the mark to begin breaking ground on the youth center in early 2008.
Cartwright Entertainment is proud to have received recognition for its efforts in support of PALS and the staff greatly appreciates the individual recognitions given by Lorraine. We look forward to helping even more in 2008 and seeing the smiles on the faces of those kids when the ribbon is cut on that wonderful youth center.

Having been to a fair number of charity poker events over the last couple years, there was one on my calendar that for a myriad of reasons, I was really looking forward to going to.

First off, I have long believed The Simpsons to be the television show with the best writing in the history of TV. I could answer many (though not all) trivia questions about the minutiae of the show, and I have been to the Fox lot a couple times over the last 10 years to watch the actors voice the show. To play poker with those affiliated with a show that meant so much to me was going to be a lot of fun. (more…)
