Fans and supporters opened up their hearts and their pockets to Radio Lollipop this past Valentine’s Day during the Magic 102.7s Fifth Annual Sock-Hop, benefitting Radio Lollipop, at the Hyatt Regency Miami. Business suits were exchanged for poodle skirts and pony tails, leather jackets and rolled-up jeans and t-shirts.<\/p>\n
The 50’s and 60’s came to life when everyone hit the dance floor to the tunes of Charlie Tona & the Soul Providers, George Galfo’s Mystics and Tommy Mara and the Crests. Even one of Miami Children’s Hospital long-time patients, Elizabth June Silver, got in on the fun. The 14-year old hoola-hooped her way into the hearts of everyone. All the money donated to her was then turned over to Radio Lollipop.<\/p>\n
Founder and creator of Radio Lollipop, Hedley Finn, also joined on the fun and celebrated twenty-five successful years of Radio Lollipop. Mr Finn thanked the audience for their continued support of the organisation.<\/p>\n
Radio Lollipop is eternally grateful to Mindy Lang, on-air personality from majoc 102.7 Oldies Radio. Her continuous devotion and commitment has ensured a successful Sock Hop each year. Thanks to our many generous, silent auction donaors and raffles sales, this rocking and rolling night brought in a total profit of $28,000. The money raised will be used for the day-to-day operations of the unique play and radio service, being laughter and fun to the patients of Miami Children’s Hospital.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
