October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and the Davies community is very active in supporting the cause, "Awareness Against Domestic Violence and Relationship Abuse," by selling t-shirts, bracelets, and a dinner dance ("Benefit at the Beach") to raise funds for the Lindsay Ann Burke Memorial Fund.  Click on www.labmf.org to learn more about Lindsay, the memorial fund, and the Lindsay Ann Burke Act.
