 Dream Halloween, Los Angeles - Fundraiser for CAAF

Major fund raising party for the Children Affected by Aids Foundation.   Hosted by Jamie Lee Curtis, event co-chairs Bob Eckert & Jerry Starch.  Big stars get together at this annual event at Barker Hanger at the Santa Monica Airport to create a party for the kids and raise major money.  (note ticket prices below before you jump in the car to go... but it's a very good cause, and where else do you get to meet this many celebrities?)

"Witches and wizards and goblins and ghosts. Batman™ and Barbie® and celebrity hosts. Trick-or-treating, sundae-eating, doesn't it sound grand? Paint your face and have a taste of food from every land! Center stage is all the rage with song and dance and fun. One-of-a-kind dolls, line the walls, there's something for everyone"
