Saturday Fundraiser for Amherst Child

Come to Groff Park on Saturday (tomorrow!) for a family festival to benefit Sabir Douglas, a 4-year-old Amherst boy who has been undergoing treatment for a rare form of childhood cancer.   The festival, which will run from 1 to 5 p.m., will raise money to support Sabir's Health Recovery Fund.

The festival will include food such as hamburgers and hot dogs, carnival-style games and raffle prizes, including tickets to the Springfield Armor, a professional basketball team in the NBA Development League that plays at the MassMutual Center in Springfield. There will also be live music, face painting, a bake sale, a 20-minute Zumba demonstration and a visit from Steal, the mascot for the Armor.
