On Saturday night, December 1, at the Rink in Conquest, the Conquest Merchants hockey club are hosting Casino Night & Silent Auction. This is an annual thing that the team does to raise funds for the club, but this year they are also raising money for Owen Clarke.
Owen is 1 1/2 years old, and he has recently been diagnosed with cancer. The poor guy is undergoing chemotherapy, something no person should ever have to go through, let alone a child who can barely walk.
There's going to be a cash bar, and lots of cool items to bid on in the silent auction, including autographed NHL memorabilia.
The Merchants are giving Owen and his parents, Shayne and Helen, a minimum 25% of all proceeds from the event. But if it results in a huge success, the more will go to help the little guy.
Let's do what we can to help the Clarke family. Now that we're in the holiday season, we should all feel the spirit of giving, especially in this trying time for Owen and his family.
So mark your calendars and come on down to Conquest. Good times, good friends, and for a good cause!
