Golf outing to benefit young cancer patient
A benefit golf outing for eight-year-old Chance Habbinga-Herbst of Delphi will be held July 25 at the Carroll County Country Club in Delphi.
Chance, a second grader at Delphi Community Elementary School, has been diagnosed with an aggressive type of cancer, Rhabdomyosarcoma. In March, a grapefruit size cancerous tumor was found in his abdomen that had spread to his lungs, shoulder, spine and bone marrow.
Chance is currently on a 44-week treatment plan that involves weekly outpatient chemo treatments at Riley Hospital for Children, overnight full chemo treatments every three weeks, and daily radiation treatments at the Indiana University Cancer Center, all in Indianapolis.
The fundraiser will help his family with expenses from his medical treatments.
Chance is the son of Justin and Jessica Herbst.
The 18-hole, four-man best ball scramble will begin at 12 noon. For information or to sign-up, contact Troy Blankenship at (765) 891-1328 or Tom Riehle at (765) 564-2155.
Monetary donations for the family may be made at any branch of Lafayette Bank & Trust.
