Rocco's Students of the Year Fundraiser

Feb 27, 2022

We had so much fun at Elk! We sold out of our Orange Sister Strong Tee Shirts and everyone wearing them met at the top of the mountain and snowboarded and skied down together! It was awesome! Thank you to everyone who participated. Our fundraiser ends on Thursday and we are doing great. Hoping to reach our goal and have Julia win Student of the Year.

Last year I missed the Annual Elk trip because I was too sick to go. This year I was grateful to be back on the trip And snowboarding again! I wore my port protector and took it easier than usual, but I still got to be with my friends and have fun. I am so lucky that there is a treatment for the cancer I have, but the side effects of the chemo are rough. I don't want other kids to have to suffer so please donate and lets find a better way to treat blood cancers. 

Here are some pics from the week..

Thank you so much.

Our Fundraiser at Bungalow Bar was so Awesome!! We raised a lot of money for LLS. (Can't tell you the total b/c we are competing against other teams!)

Congrats to all of the Winners from the raffle, the 50/50 and the Gift Basket Auction. Thank you to all who participated and helped out!

    Roc - your courage through this process has been something we can all learn from but, it’s the fact that you have been willing to accept this cross + bare it, all while knowing there is something greater on the other side of this adversity. Your willingness to lift others up while you are in the same boat. Love you.
