FROM KEITH GROLLER

As many of his closest friends know, Brett Snyder's courageous fight against ALS has come with a tremendous number of medical bills and extraordinary costs.

The former Northwestern Lehigh High School and Lehigh University standout, who was inducted into the National Football Foundation Lehigh Valley Chapter, could use some help.

On Saturday afternoon from 1 to 4, the Game Time Fieldhouse, located at 155 Nestle Way in Breinigsville will have an Open House and use it as a fundraiser for Brett and his family to assist in their battle against ALS.

During the Open House, there will be  football throwing contests, appearances by the members of the undefeated  Lehigh Valley Steelhawks professional indoor football team, tons of raffles, free demo classes and info about what Game Time Fieldhouse has to offer. Trixie's Treats will provide food and desserts.

The Game Time Fieldhouse is the home location of Velocity Sports Performance Center.

The cost is $10 per family, $5 for individual and all funds raised will be given to Brett and his family.

Also included are our community partners Pediatric Cancer Foundation of the Lehigh Valley, Inc., The Coco Foundation, Krysta Hankee Memorial Fund and sMiles for Max. Learn about their upcoming events (5k Run/Walk, golf outings, etc) and ways you can volunteer and get involved.

This sounds like a great day to help a wonderful family and kudos to Mike Cerimele, the former Central Catholic and Penn State standout, for opening up his Game Time Fieldhouse for such a great cause.
