On December 6th 2008, Sergeant Gina Dwyer-Meliska suffered a cardiac arrest as a result of a condition called Apical Ballooning Syndrome (ABS).  Although Gina's condition has stabilized, her biggest concern remains to be any neurological damage that may have occurred due to her loss of oxygen.  At this point, Gina faces indefinite long-term care, which will put a financial burden on the family.

This One's For Gina

Gina is a remarkable individual that has always dedicated countless hours towards helping others, always giving 100% of herself.  Now we are asking you to join us for a benefit honoring her as we strive to give back to her and her family during their time of need.  Please help us make this benefit a success!
