“Honoring Wounded Veterans”. I would like to extend to you an offer. I will be hosting an event next year at the Wynn Casino Las Vegas to honor the vets and their wives. What gave me this idea is when I attended the American Heart Association Gold Ball at the Wynn Saturday night, February 24th. While I sat there and watched them honor Siegfried & Roy for his recovery from his lion attack, I was thinking about all the veterans who have to recover from their wounds by there self. Why don’t we look into a way to honor them the way they honor all these celebrities. They must have raised over $100,000. Look at the Oscars; all those people turn out for the actors. We should award the people who lose their arms and legs and their lives.
I am a Vietnam vet and believe our servicemen are not given the praise and honor they deserve. Corporations need to be involved but you know as well as I that you need a celebrity to be the host to get people’s attention. I can raise the money for the ballroom, hotel and what goes with it, but I need someone like you to get the crowd there. We can have the donations go right to them as we honor them. I do not need the money – I just need you! Give me a date that will work for you and I will do the rest. Keep up the good work for our veterans.
Thank you, in advance
