Evansville should be very proud, we have an olympian on our hands! Reitz High School graduate, Lilly King  placed first in the finals of the women's 100 meter breast stroke yesterday, and earned her a spot on Team USA for the 2016 olympics in Rio! But going to the olympics isn't cheap, and the community is rallying behind Lilly and her family to raise money to help them offset costs, here's how you can help! 

 

On July 7th Hacienda on Evansville's west side is hosting a giveback for the family of Lilly King! It'll help her family offset costs to travel and purchasing tickets to the events in Rio so they can watch Lilly compete.  You can help out by eating out!

Just be sure you show them this facebook post below:

 

Check out Lilly talking about how she feels being a first time olympian!
