Utica Park Had a Great Turnout on Saturday for the Marilyn Sanders Benefit!
Angels Camp, CA....A special event was held for 13 year old, Marilyn Sanders on Saturday in the lovely Utica Park. She was recently diagnosed with Osteomylitis, an aggressive bone disease which she is fighting bravely with grace. She was hospitalized for over a week at the children's hospital in Oakland, and has now returned home. She does still need to return to Oakland weekly for tests, physical therapy etc. She is keeping a positive attitude and was in good spirits when Kim spoke with her on Saturday. It was a very well attended and busy event, especially since it was put together on a very short schedule....
Pictured above are the festivities and also beautiful Marilyn with a couple of friends
Many people from our community came together and donated some wonderful items for the silent auction for this young lady.
It is truly amazing how we always come together for someone in need. How lucky we are to live in this lovely area we call home!
If anyone that would like to donate that could not attend they can do so by sending it to:
Marilyn Sanders
