Gage Besing lost his battle with childhood cancer last year during the Christmas season. Even though his young life was cut short, his memory is keeping hope alive for many future kids who will get the diagnosis in the future. This Saturday, at Pride's Creek Campground in Petersburg, Indiana, an event called 'Voices Against Childhood Cancer' is being held to support St. Jude Children's Research
On Friday night, the community turned out for the 5th year in a row to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital with Putt Fore Life at The Midget Links! Once again, this event paid tribute to former St. Jude patient, and golfer in the event, the late Sam Featherstone. Check out the highlights of the fundraiser!
