If you couldn’t make it to our lemonade stand 🍋 today tomorrow…
Saturday, July 19th join CHKD’s Engineering Team as they sponsor the Thompson family's Annual LemonAid Stand in loving memory of Gavin Rhodes, brother of CHKD teammate Jessica.
Gavin bravely battled leukemia at CHKD’s Cancer and Blood Disorders Center from 2015–2019, and this annual event is their way of saying “thank you” to the staff that supported them every step of the way.
Last year, attendees helped raise $2,160, with 100% of the proceeds donated to CHKD. This year, they’re going even bigger, with a public location and a lineup of new fun features:
🎯 Dunk Tank — donated by the CHKD Engineering Department
🦪 Jewelry Raffle — win a pearl necklace (thanks to Joy in the Blood Bank!)
💎 Gemstone Necklaces for Sale
🌭 Hotdogs & Snacks — bring your appetite
🍹 Fresh Lemonade — make yours with custom flavors or an Arnold Palmer
📍 ProMedia Video Services 5501 Bennett's Pasture Road, Suffolk, VA 🗓️ Saturday, 11am–6pm
Come out for a good time and an even better cause. Every dollar raised supports the Cancer and Blood Disorders Center❤
