Dunk tank for charity at Hooters CocoWalk today
Today, May 29, until 6 pm, Hooters has a dunk tank set up at CocoWalk, on the ground floor in front of Maui Nix. For $2 a shot, you can try to dunk pretty Dalia Echevarria, shown here with Danny Estevez. The money all goes to the Kelly Jo Breast Cancer Research Grant.
Kelly Jo Dowd, shown in the inset below, was a Hooters girl, who made it up the Hooters ranks to management at the Palm Harbor location. Kelly Jo was the 1995 Hooters Calendar cover girl.
In 2002, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and she spent the next five years battling the disease. Through the struggle, she was courageous and selfless, becoming an advocate for early detection.
The story received national attention and for the past two years, Hooters restaurants across the country have been raising money for the grant. This year, each restaurant is trying to meet the goal of raising $1000. You can help today. You don't even have to dunk Dalia, you can just stop by and leave a donation.
