Hello Friends and Family!

A group of State College locals supported by Herlocher's Dipping Mustard are taking a stand against childhood cancer by joining more than 90,000 Mini-THON® students who are fundraising for Four Diamonds.

Background

A Group of local businessmen came across an unusual, but unique idea to unite both town and gown to add some fun spirit for the annual fundraising journey for THON/Four Diamonds Fund at Penn State. 

The aging group, Neil Herlocher, Jay Paterno, Brian Allen, Charles Driscoll, Mike Flanagan, Fred Egerer, Mike Hughes, Ara Kervandjian and Kerry Small, Vi decided to take the idea and run with it. 

Now, a few months later, the team will be competing in the National Toboggan Championship or the Camden Snow Bowl in Camden, Maine, to represent Happy Valley and THON/Four Diamonds Fund. 

AND THEY NEED YOUR SUPPORT (thoughts and prayers for their aging bodies, but most importantly donations FOR THE KIDS!

Please support our efforts to make a difference in the lives of children fighting cancer all over the world by making a donation today. 100% proceeds go to the Four Diamonds Fund. Herlocher's Dipping Mustard is covering all costs of training, travel and equipment for the team.
