We want to help out this local veteran who is in need of assistance. Beau MacVane is from Boca Raton and was an Army Ranger who did 5 combat tours in Iraq & Afghanistan. When he returned home, his family thought he was out of harms way but, he soon was diagnosed with ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease).

Beau is a fighter and determined to not give up but he needs our help. A benefit is being held for him at Big City Tavern in Boca Raton on June 21st.  

A link to his page is posted on our MySpace page @ www.myspace.com/wpbpolice as well as a video story Channel 5 recently ran.

If you are interested or have suggestions you can contact me at amyers@wpb.org
