RED means we care

First Long Beach got TED, now Long Beach goes RED. Yes, Mayor Bob Foster will host a RED rally in downtown Long Beach on December 1. To support AIDS awareness, most of downtown will be illuminated with red light. The rally begins at 5:30 in front of the Terrace Theatre with giveaways for the first 500 attendees and music for all. There will be an after party at SIP (WHAT'S with all the capitalizations?) in the Renaissance Hotel and several downtown restaurants are donating part of their proceeds to AIDS charities.
