Countdown to Gold Out! Next weekend is the official kickoff to Wilson's Mini-Thon fundraising efforts! Each year our entire community works together to help raise money for childhood cancer.
All the fundraising events culminate with our 12-hour event that takes place in February. Last year, through our year-long fundraising efforts, we raised $93,047.38 for the kids!

We will be officially kicking off our fundraising efforts next weekend with our Gold Out activities. These include our annual Gold Out game Friday night, a Car Wash, and Bake Sale. Watch for more details and join us as we raise money all "For the Kids!" #FTK
