4/12/13 - A bowling event early next month will raise funds to help a former Howell High School student who has been diagnosed with cancer. Howell teenager Zac Cain went into remission since he was first diagnosed with cancer, but the disease has since returned and his family is seeking the publicâs help paying the bills for his treatment at the University of Michigan hospital. Friends of the family have organized a fundraiser planned to take place Saturday, May 4th at the Howell Bowledrome from 12 to 3pm. Organizer Karl Swan tells WHMI the Cain family will get all the proceeds from the event, which will include silent auctions, prizes, and food included with the $25 entry fee, as well as specialized tee shirts donated by J.J. Jinkleheimer in Howell that can be purchased for $10. Swan says they do not have a fundraising target in mind but do hope to raise at least $4,000 to $5,000. Swan says they have filled about half the available space so far. Signup and payments are due by April 20th. To reserve a spot, contact Karl Swan at (810) 599-6654 or Karen Swan at (810) 923-8256.
