The Irish motorcyclists traveled 2,448 miles along the historic Route 66 to raise money for the Temple Street Children's University Hospital. Since the first ever Route 66 Challenge in aid of Temple Street took place in 2002, the challenge has raised an incredible 1.5 million euro in much needed funds for the Hospital.

Kids With Cameras
KIDS WITH CAMERAS - Images by Fabian Lewkowicz
Locanda Del Lago Executive Chef Roberto Maggioni demonstrates how to prepare farmers market salad during the Santa Monica Human Relations Council second annual Kids with Cameras, photo exhibition and community conversation at the Santa Monica Family YMCA on October 2, 2010.
Focusing on the human element, sixteen youth from PAL and Boys and Girls Club participated in summer workshops and met with local vendors, gardners, farmers and a chef to learn about how food is planted, harvested, produced and consumed as part of the Farmer’s Market movement. They were led by Fabian Lewkowicz, a professional photo journalist and supervised by City staff members Eula Fritz and PAL officers. Over a period of eight weeks, the kids were trained to document their experiences through the lens of a camera, using a photojournalistic style. At the event the youth exhibited their work and shared their narratives with the community at large. The exhibit was curated by Lewkowicz. The program included a cooking demonstration by Locanda Del Lago Executive Chef Roberto Maggioni and a planting workshop by Master Gardener Susan McCorry, and a gallery walk followed by a video presentation and a youth panel serving as a spring board for breakout sessions based on the summer workshops.
Photo students who participated in the summer photo workshop was Chloe Hassenfratz, Nayla Torres, Yoly Islas, Cesar Rodriguez, Jasmine Cortez, Lilly Reynaldo, Griffin Walker, Arturo Mungia. Gabriela Ruiz, Alberto Ruiz, Tea Irving, Eyrn Mitchell, Shaena Barnes, Maxwell Stevens, Maya McComsey, Jourdan Harris, Blayne Sutton-Wills, Adam Lemus, Lendsey Comstock, Sean Shaw, Alondra Morales, Salma Morales

HUCK FINN DAY
Delphine Gregory, 5, fishes at the Santa Monica Pier during the Santa Monica Jaycees (Santa Monica Junior Chamber) 55th annual Huck Finn Day on Saturday, October 2, 2010.
Huck Finn Day is based on Mark Twain’s novel that tackles some of the most difficult social issues our country faces. However, the novel also embodies a powerful message of freedom and friendship that stem from expanding perspectives as Huck and his friend Jim, a runaway slave, escape together on a journey down the Mississippi river. Huck Finn Day is focused on Learn to Fish, a spin-off of the River theme, and allows children to experience this activity in a supervised and exciting environment.
