About the event

Michael is a 9 year old New Bern native who has recently been diagnosed with a rare cancer that manifests in spinal cord and brain tumors. He had surgery to remove a tumor on his lower spine on January 30th, but surgeons were not able to get the entire tumor. Because of this and the possibility of recurrence, Michael will undergo a special type of radiation, not offered in NC. Doctors are working closely with hospitals throughout the country to decide which will be the best fit for him. The out-of-state treatment will be at least 6-12 weeks long and is not fully covered by his insurance. Michael is the oldest of 4 kids, taken care of by a wonderful single mom who now has no source of income.

On March 15th, we are asking for the community’s help to get this sweet boy the treatment he needs. Beary the Hatchet will be donating 100% of sales from axe throwing and holding a silent auction. Coastal Jumps will be holding a kickoff to win a FREE BOUNCE HOUSE RENTAL and will have a bounce house on site for the kiddos from 5pm to 7pm. 100% of sales from the kickoff and bounce house entry fees will be donated to Michael's family.
