I want to give a HUGE shout out and THANK YOU to everyone who came out to the Hope For Kelsey Spring Festival at Lonerider At Wake Forest - Hideout and Distillery on Saturday which we consider an overwhelming SUCCESS!!

Our fundraising goal before we started all of this was $10,000... which we hit BEFORE the event. Our new goal at the start of the day on Saturday was $30,000... I am excited to share that all total...

****WE RAISED $38,000 for the Craig family!!!****

None of this would have been possible without YOU, (Family, Friends & Community) who came out and showed their love and support for this amazing woman, family and cause! For some of you who may not have known, Kelsey and her family where there ALL day long soaking up every last drop of support!

Worth FAR MORE than the MONEY, was this INCREDIBLE, UNFORGETTABLE DAY AND MEMORIES MADE WITH FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COMMUNITY. This kind of support gives someone STRENGTH AND HOPE....and THAT IS WHAT THIS DAY WAS ALL ABOUT!

**Please continue to pray for Kelsey and her family that she have the strength and support to KICK CANCER'S BUTT!! WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER!**

**If you have any fun photos from the event, please feel free to share them on this page or tag this page**

NOW, for some very important SHOUT OUTS:
