2023 LEND A HAND SPORTS CHARITY EVENT
Hosted by: LDFH Head Coach Linda Kreiser
Our 12th Annual Lend A Hand Sports Charity Event will include a Field Hockey Tournament on Saturday May 6 2023. The tournament will run from 8am to 5pm.
The five recipients who will share the proceeds this year are:
Our 2023 LAH Recipients
Ken Freeland: Ken, an LDMS basketball coach, was diagnosed with head and neck squamous cell cancer. He had radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery to remove the cancer. In 2021, he was diagnosed with more squamous cells in the sinus. Radiation and Keytruda seemed to have the condition under control. In 2022, metastasized Squamos cells were found in the lymph nodes in his neck and lungs. Ken’s condition has made it impossible to eat solid foods. He has been on a liquid diet since 2018.
Gale Freeland: Gale, Ken’s wife, has been diagnosed with Melanoma of the brain, adrenal glands and lymph nodes. She has had six Melanoma-related seizures in the past 15 months, each more severe than the previous one. Gale has been in and out of the hospital, and she no longer can drive. Lend a Hand will help both Ken and Gale with mounting medical bills.
Laura Souders: Laura, a former LD elementary and MS teacher, suffered from a brain bleed which caused a stroke. Laura had to undergo surgery to relieve pressure on her brain. She was hospitalized and then moved to a rehabilitation center. Unfortunately, the event resulted in paralysis on the left side of her body. Laura is working hard in rehab to regain strength and mobility.
Christie Gamber: Christie, an LD elementary teacher, was diagnosed with metastasized liver cancer and a broken C4 vertebrae from a tumor in her neck. She will have a number of immunotherapy treatments over the next three months. Christie’s children have been LD athletes. Daughter Janelle played field hockey, and son Clint was a talented football player who currently coaches at LD. Lend a Hand will relieve some of the financial burdens the Gamber family faces, as well as show Christie that she has community support.
