Anna’s Kitchen Gets Personal

Samantha was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in 2004. She is currently doing well, and is getting ready to celebrate 3 years in remission. To honor her success, her Dad, Rick and Mom, Desiree Nichols are participating in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Societys Team in Training program where they will be walking 26.2 miles in Alaska this summer. In order to participate they need to raise at least $10,000!

A craft fair/home business event is being held at the Gordonsville VFW on March 3rd from 10 am to 4 pm to fundraise for their walk. Goodie bags are being offered to the first fifty people at the event which will contain samples and coupons from participating vendors. Door prizes will be awarded every fifteen minutes as well as a chance to win a HUGE gift basket filled with tons of items.
