TriWest Healthcare Alliance presented "Operation Christmas Hope", a benefit dinner & concert for the Oregon Chapter of Operation Homefront as they prepare to serve local families of deployed soldiers during the holiday season. The benefit was held on Friday, Nov. 30, 2007 at the historic Venetian Theater, in downtown Albany. A fabulous dinner was catered by Novak's Hungarian Paprikas, and The Lost Dogs, an Alt Americana band based out of Southern California and Nashville, provided the evening's entertainment, which included original hits, Christmas songs, sing-a-longs and a comical radio show complete with 'really bad' English accents (according to the Lost Dogs)! If you missed this event... don't be too hard on yourself... we suspect you'll get another chance next year. We base our suspicion on the success of this event and the terrific time that was had by all. It was an evening to remember! The Benton County Republican women have supported Operation Homefront/Oregon since its establishment earlier this year.
