Firefighters and Local Fire Agencies Host 16th Annual Burn Relay to Benefit Burn Survivors

(Los Angeles, CA)…Los Angeles City and County Fire Departments and members of fire associations throughout Southern California will gather at the Santa Monica Air Center (3021 Airport Ave.) at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday April 28, 2007 to kick off the 16th Annual Burn Relay to benefit the Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation (AARBF).

Funds raised benefit burn survivor children and their families as well as providing support for AARBF's burn prevention education programs. Two relay teams composed of 15-20 antique and modern fire apparatus and emergency vehicles will parade to 20 fire stations from Santa Monica to Long Beach and from Beverly Hills to San Marino. Celebrities, burn survivors, and firefighters will ride on the vehicles to each station where firefighters will donate funds which they have raised to benefit the Foundation from events such as pancake breakfasts and spaghetti dinners. Confirmed celebrities include one of L.A.'s favorites-Dr. George Fishbeck, and Reneé O'Connor, whom fans of Xena, Princess Warrior will remember as feisty, scene-stealing "Gabrielle".

By mid-afternoon teams will arrive in tandem at the Los Angeles County Fire Department Station #118 (17056 Gale Ave.) for a Hotly-Contested Chili Cook-Off, complete with imported chili judges, opportunity drawings, and terrific food. The finale event is open to the public.

Come and join the 16th Annual Burn Relay and show your support for our local firefighter heroes!

The Alisa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation was founded in 1971 after the tragic death of Alisa Ann in a backyard barbeque accident. The organization is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for burn survivors and as well as providing vital burn prevention education throughout the State of California. Celebrating its 35th year of
service, AARBF works in partnership with local firefighters, educators, and burn care professionals to develop innovative burn survivor and burn prevention education programs

Ghost Town Movie News

Received the following note about the premiere of the movie from Dean Teaster:

The word of the premiere is spreading quickly and people are already buying up the VIP tickets. I wanted to explain the chain of events so everyone understands our step by step process. first, the premiere at Eagle Nest was limited to weekend availability and had to be done in conjuction with the Ghost Town in the Sky theme park opening around May 25th. Yes, it did bump into the Xena convention, but this will not hurt the film or the convention in any way. It is more exposure for Renee anyway you look at it. Read more

I hope everyone has had a safe holiday period..

The brand new AUSXIP Charity Auctions site is up and running! AUSXIP Charity Auctions was born out of a desire to be able to auction off items for the Starship Children's Hospital and The Alissa Ann Ruch Burn Foundation charities without paying fees to online auction sites.

The new address is: http://auction.ausxip.com

You will need to register (the old auction site will no longer be used and if you registered there, you will need to re-register)

Lucy and Renee mention on Lesbianation

This year, Girlbar's team pulled in big guns Lucy Lawless, Ce Ce Penniston and Carmen Electra, while Club Skirts served up parties peppered with The L Word's Leisha Hailey and Kate Moennig, Jackie Warner, Alex Hedison and Crystal Waters. Too bad the celebs didn't literally tug o war. Imagine Joan Jett's purported piece of tail Carmen Electra going toe to toe with Jackie Warner… It'd be ass against abs. Or Lawless kicking ass on the opposite side of the rope from her former Xena sidekick Renee O'Connor—who turned up at Club Skirts' White Diamonds party to make the ladies swoon..
