Each year, we have picked a good cause to donate the proceeds to. This year I found a 12 year old boy, that is fighting Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. His treatments have made his bones brittle and he often needs to use crutches to get around. His mom, a school bus driver is having alot of financial difficulty. We cant cure this, but maybe we can give them something to smile about for even one day!
For info, or to donate a basket or your time, contact Rick Giermata, RJGwoof@aol.com or call 716-602-5017

Proud Sponsors, Lackawanna Police Dept. Animal Control Division, Tri-Tronics, United Kennel Club, City of Lackawanna Mayor, Geoff Szymanski and The Nite Cappe Steak and Seafood..

This years attendance close to 300 people & then derby winners were "Team Canada"! The donated their winnings of $250 back to the Stranz family. New Empire raised well over $3000 for Michael for his battle with Leukemia.We were also able to get Lackawanna Boy Scout Troop 523, new uniforms for those scouts who could not afford them. Special thanks to Dave and Don McVay for their help, as well as Tri-Tronics and the United Kennel Club for helping a outstanding young man and his family in their time of need! God-bless Beaglers!
