About:
This event was a Cancer Research and Education Fundraiser in memory and honor of Mr. Denny Wright who was a beloved member of our wrestling family and school community. In honor of Coach Wright, this year’s efforts and proceeds went directly to one of our 11th grade students, James Griffin, who had recently diagnosed with Stage 3 brain cancer and his family. All admission, concession, and t-shirt sales money went directly to James and his family. Our entire program/community was able to raise $2000 for the the Griffins and our wrestling club donated another $500. James was also given a Homer Wrestling shirt, a tournament shirt, and a Homer Wrestling warmup top. Additionally, James’s mother was given a tournament shirt.
