A Day of Fun supporting Jos

By Samantha Elley

To watch a loved one suffer from a brain tumour is bad enough, but when that person you care for is a young teenager who hasn’t had a chance to live their life yet, that is a whole different layer of hurt.

That is the case for the family of Alstonville local Joscelyn McCabe.

The 13-year-old has been diagnosed with DIPG or Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Gliomas which is a highly aggressive and difficult to treat brain tumour found at the base of the brain.

To help raise funds to support Joscelyn and her family, the Alstonville Plateau Sports Club is having ‘A Day for Jos’.

There will be a Kids Disco with Disco Statik and a Treasure Hunt.

NBN’s Big Dog will make an appearance with a host of other friends.

There will also be a show by The Wild Life Twins.

Local businesses have thrown their support behind the day by donating some fantastic prizes for the raffles.

The day will also hold an auction and up for grabs will be signed NRL jerseys, NRL packs, two nights at Alstonville Country Cottages, a night at the Ramada and much more.

The day will be on September 10, starting at 12pm, so come along to Plateau Sports, 10-14 Deegan Drive, Alstonville with the kids for a great day and a worthy cause.
