Fontana City Councilmember  Acquanetta Warren spearheaded a golf classic that raised over $290,000.00 for the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Children's Library located within the new Lewis Library and Technology Center at the Red Hill Country Club, in Rancho Cucamonga.

Golfers joined Mayor Mark Nuaimi, and Chairman of the Classic, Greg Bell, former Rams and Raiders all pro running back at a dinner auction that raised over $10,000 toward the overall amount of the event.

The event was generously sponsored by Fifth District, San Bernardino County Supervisor, Josie Gonzales, Mr. Reggie King, Cole Burr of Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. and, Mark Bertone of Madole and Associates, Second District, San Bernardino County Supervisor, Paul Biane and Marc Wims of Fontana Nissan, Josh LaBarge of QMC and a host of others.

The winning team headed by Related Companies, led the golfers in what others have deemed as a dream come true day.  Councilmember Acquanetta Warren stated this is just the beginning of a dream come true.  Dr. King had visions of children being together regardless of their race, creed or color and we as a city have a vision of serving their educational needs by providing this great library for their use.  It is our dream to continue to make our goals by having the Golf Classic June 16, 2008 and the Grand Opening Celebration on June 21, 2008.  Plan on not missing either.
