Benefit for Jesse Martinez
GOOD HURT 12.17.2010 Friday : doors open 8pm

Jesse Martinez has dedicated his life this past year to the maintenance and security of the Venice Skatepark since its opening. Just before the first anniversary of the Park opening Jesse was jumped and severely beaten in service at the Park, resulting in swelling of the brain and a stack of hospital bills.

If it were not for Jesse the park would have never been built in the first place! Jesse maintains the park daily, and watches out for it nightly. Please show some good christmas cheer and a donation for his hard work and efforts! There will be a benefit for Jesse Martinez at the Good Hurt Night Club at 12249 Venice Blvd. West Los Angeles, CA 90066 on Dec. 17, 2010, featuring music by Neighborhood Watch, DJ Fluffy and the Venice All-Stars along with Tone Def Punk Rock Karaoke. This event is sponsored by Dogtown Skateboards, Venice Originals, Juice Magazine, Indie on the Westside and the Good Hurt Club. Doors open at 8pm. Ages 21 and over. $10 cover. This benefit is a chance for the community to give back to someone who has given so much to us freely. Your donations and attendance at this event will be a chance to help make a difference. Please send donations and product to: Jim Muir 2567 Walnut Ave Venice, CA 90291 You may also make cash donations to Jesse Martinez via Paypal to dtfamilia [at] aol [dot] com.
