    Spring Picnic

    RAYTHEON PLANS BAR-BE-QUE

    Hello everyone,

    I wanted to invite you and current members of the military to attend a Bar-b-que at Raytheon Space and Airborne Systems, on Saturday, 19 April 2008 at 11:30 AM.

    This event is our second annual fundraiser for the California “Run For the Wall” participants. Last year, there were vendors, music, a lot of Harley Davidson’s, Vietnam Vets, a Korean POW, and Gulf War Veterans, plus great grub for the guests. This year, the memorial car “Fueled by
    the Fallen”, has been added, The car memorializes every Marine that has been killed in action while serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom.

    Please spread the word to our troops that they are invited to attend (free of charge), and to wear their uniform. It is fine to bring their family members as well.

    The goal of this event is to honor those who have served, and those who are currently serving our country.

    To register, and if you have any questions, contact: dlopresto@raytheon.com
