From the Sanborn Central Heart & Sole team

money for the Mitchell Heart & Sole. SC will definitely have a camp as we
raised $535 in contributions. The Storla Lutheran Church kindly added
another $650 in donations for a total of $1185 going toward our camp site. This
money aids people in our communities during their battle. We urge
you to make a small sign to stick in the ground in honor or memory of someone
who has met the "Big C," bring your lawn chairs, and camp out with
us on Friday, June 21 at the Mitchell Middle School! We will send out another message as June 21
gets closer letting you know our camp site location. Please plan on joining us
for a fun-filled evening!
