Rueben's Ramblings

(c) Acting Outlaws (2010)

Do you want to help a good cause that involves actresses Tricia Helfer and Katee Sackhoff (from Battlestar Galactica fame)?

If so, please visit Acting Outlaws to find out all the specifics; but let me give you the general run down. The following is straight from the Acting Outlaws website:

“The Acting Outlaws, in collaboration with the Gulf Restoration Network and the Gulf Coast Fund for Community Renewal and Ecological Health, will ride for national awareness of Gulf revitalization.

Starting on October 22, Katee Sackhoff (Battlestar Galactica, 24, Nip/Tuck) and Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica, Burn Notice, Dark Blue) will ride from Los Angeles, CA to New Orleans, LA to raise funds and awareness for the continuous conflict and enduring environmental impact that the Gulf Oil Disaster has caused to this region.

The actresses will ride approximately 340 miles per day for 8 days on motorcycles. Joining them will be Josh Manning who will be filming the duration of the ride. Real time videos will be posted on the Acting Outlaws website to share the experience.

During the ride, Sackhoff and Helfer will urge support for Gulf Future, which is a collaboration between the Gulf Restoration Network and the Gulf Coast Fund. This organization is committed to cleaning up and restoring the Gulf, ensuring coastal communities have the resources they need to fight for their future, and making sure we learn the lessons of the BP drilling disaster to keep this from happening again. Those interested in donating can text: “FUTURE” to 85944 to donate $10 to the Gulf Future campaign for Gulf Coast recovery.

Their journey will include stops in Flagstaff, Dallas, Houston, Lafayette and Baton Rouge. During the final leg, Sackhoff and Helfer will join local motorcyclists and rally into the Voodoo Experience in City Park, New Orleans on Saturday, October 30. Following the festival, they will partake in The Gulf Restoration Network press conference on Sunday, October 31.”

Again, please visit Acting Outlaws for more details.

And good luck to the ladies during their trek across America and for much success to this charity effort.
