Oct 10, 2019 1:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Poor Olivia and Jeff Kearney. The Fort Worth couple had the best of intentions to head east to Dallas in time for Luke’s FastBreaks’ (LFB) 2019 Blue Jean Ball on the evening of Saturday, September 21.

Blue Jean Ball Raffle Revealed For Luke’s Fast Break Fundraiser At Park House Dallas

Aug 23, 2019 1:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Alas, Luke Lange wasn’t able to attend the Blue Jean Ball raffle reveal party benefiting his Luke’s FastBreak on Thursday, August 1, at Park House.
