One of our favorite times of the year is upon us, our yearly Re/Max Top Producers Children's Miracle Network's Charity Poker Tournament. This event is very special to us as we help raise funds to support The Children's Miracle Networks Hospitals of Los Angeles.
As Parents, we know how important healthcare is and there are too many families who cannot afford cost of health care, many families have children that face various illnesses and the price of medical attention is just too much. The Children Miracle Network Hospital of Los Angeles offer free medical attention to children who cannot afford it otherwise. They are funded by donors from all walks of life, we are proud to say that we've join in the efforts to raise funds in a fun and entertaining way and we've had so much success is the few short years involved. Myself alongside with a group of my closes colleagues we put together our company's yearly Charity Poker Tournament.
Every year we set a minimum amount of donations during our tournament. Last year we had a goal to raise $25,000, we are proud to say we surpassed it and raised a little over $32,000. Well, this year we decided to raise the bar again and set our goal to raise $40,000.
We'd like to invite you to join us in our quest to hit our goal. We'll have entertainment, food, raffle prizes, silent auction and of course POKER!

Monrovia real estate is the location of some of the most diverse history in Los Angeles County. Remembering the “old town” atmosphere and history is important to many of Monrovia’s residents, and the T. Philips Ale House and Grill understands this fact. Their goal, as they say on their website, is to “provide a gathering place reminiscent of turn-of-the-century neighborhood taverns. A place where friends, family, and colleagues meet, celebrate and enjoy fine dining in a casual atmosphere.”
Walking through the doors of T. Philips envelops guests in the warmth of a small town, where they can stop to chat with friends and share a leisurely meal, while enjoying a casual, family-friendly environment. This small corner of Monrovia real estate welcomes everyone, whether they are looking to enjoy a full meal from the superb menu, or just stopping by for a quick drink chosen from the wall of beers behind the bar.
T. Philips reserve wines and incredible selection of beers from around the world are the perfect compliment to any meal, whether it’s a simple burger or an entree of their quality “all natural” steaks and fresh fish. The phrase “Good Beer, Good Cheer” can be found throughout the restaurant as a reminder that even the best products lose their value if there is a lack of good service, and this is taken to heart by the staff. To learn more about this corner of Monrovia real estate visit their website at TPhilipsAleHouse.com, or call 626-256-4253.
San Gabriel Valley properties are surrounded by beauty and history. The Gamble House is one of the most well preserved historical structures and an outstanding example of American Arts and Crafts style architecture. It is located in Pasadena, California, which is the oldest incorporated community in the San Gabriel Valley. In 1908, Charles and Henry Greene designed the house and its furnishings for David and Mary Gamble of the Procter & Gamble Company. Since 1978, the house has been designated as a National Historical Landmark, and it remains one of the most well known San Gabriel Valley properties.
The University of Southern California operates the house, and one hour docent-led public tours are available Thursday through Sunday. A variety of in-depth specialty tours designed to focus on features of the house that are not covered on the regular tour are also offered. The Gamble House Bookstore is located in the original garage structure that is adjacent to the main house, and its proceeds directly support the Gamble House. The Bookstore is well-known for its extensive collection of books and periodicals on the Arts and Crafts movement, American Art Pottery, and a broad selection of architecture guidebooks for San Gabriel Valley properties in Pasadena and Los Angeles. To find out more about visiting this Historical Landmark visit their website at GambleHouse.org.
The Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden is a lovely haven for all who call Arcadia home. This unique 127 acre botanical garden is located on the site of what was once the heart of the historic Rancho Santa Anita. The Arboretum maintains natural landscapes, wildlife, and historic buildings in order to share with visitors the plants and trees from all over the world, and to help them learn about California history as they enjoy the garden. An Arcadia home is set in beautiful surroundings, and having this amazing botanical garden in such close proximity means that residents can visit at their leisure.
There are a few necessary rules of etiquette that visitors are careful to follow. While the garden is a place of wonder for people of all ages, children under the age of 18 are required to have adult supervision at all times for their safety. The wildlife is as much a part of the garden as the rest of the landscape, so family pets are not allowed, although service animals for the disabled are always welcome. It stands to reason that chasing or harassing the wildlife is not permitted, but visitors are asked not feed them either, including the peafowl, geese, ducks and squirrels. It is also wise to keep a safe distance. Since the Arboretum is a museum of living plants, guests are asked not to remove or damage any of the natural materials, including seeds, fruits, flowers, plant labels, or feathers. The Garden and Gift Shop is open to the public from 9:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. so that each visitor can bring a piece of this unique garden back to their Arcadia home. For more information on the hours and admission, or events happening at the garden visit their website at Arboretum.org.
