BRUNSWICK — In July 2010, former Mt. Ararat High School basketball standout Cam Vermette was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma.
Recently, Vermette had a stem cell transplant, and has returned home to recover under strict precautions. This has forced his mother, Michele Vermette, to be out of work while caring for her son.
A benefit dinner and auction will be held for the family on April 21 beginning at 5 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus. There will be a spaghetti dinner at a cost of $5, as well as a silent auction and 50/50 raffle.
Those who are unable to attend and want to help, can send a check made out to Nick Vermette & Family to 2 Columbus Drive, Brunswick, ME, 04011.
