Last week, we hosted one of our annual kid’s events at the TinCaps game. Twelve families attended the event.

Child Advocate Leah Kneubuhler says, “These events are so important because the kids are able to see and play with friends that they have met during their treatments. Parents also get the chance to talk with adults who have gone through the experience of having a child with cancer.”

The weather was a little cold but that didn’t stop the kids from having a good time! The children loved the dance contest. For many of them, this was their first baseball game. Even though the TinCaps lost, the children had a great experience at Parkview field!
