Kemah.Net is a proud supporter of Equusearch!
All Stars Sports Bar & Grill, 1055 Bay Area Blvd, Houston, TX 77058 is holding a very large benefit on July 19th to raise money for Equusearch.  That is the organization that provides local manpower to search for missing persons.  You may have recently seen them on television as they searched for the two children in Pasadena.  That particular search wiped out the remainder of their budget, so All Stars Sports Bar & Grill thru it's Eagles Wings Charitable Fund  are hosting an "emergency" benefit for them on the 19th. There is a huge live auction, free food, live music, etc. Kemah.Net is a proud supporter of Equusearch and we hope you will all go out and make this benefit to raise money for Equusearch a BIG Success.
