WESTERLO — Friends and neighbors of Harold Cameron are rallying support for the 15-year-old after his legs were paralyzed in a logging accident this spring.

Michelle VanAlstyne and Jackie Hill along with others are holding a benefit picnic to raise money to help pay for some of the medical costs for his rehabilitation.

The benefit picnic will be held next Friday, June 30, from 5 to 7 p.m. at Westerlo Town Park on Route 401 and all are invited to come and have a great time.

Tickets are $10 per person and, if purchased before Monday, will include a barbecue dinner from Giffy’s Barbecue of Ballston Lake. There will also be music, games, drawings, and a silent auction including a quilted American flag made by Carol Wilbert and many other items.
Donations can also be made to the "Cameron Family Fund" at Bank of America.

Call Michelle VanAlstyne at 768-2233 to purchase tickets for the fundraiser or for more information on how you can help.
