All proceeds from the event will be used to support a local man and Centennial High graduate, Lance Cossey, whois bravely navigating the road to recovery after a recent stroke. Lance is a motocross legend, devoted husband and proud father to two incredible young girls.
A little bit about We Care Williamson County:
We Care Williamson County was founded out of deep care for our local Williamson County Community of families. What began as a charity event in 2013 in support of Mary’s Trail, a non- profit founded in memoriam of Mary O’Connell, the crawfish boil was created to financially assist women battling breast cancer. The event has since morphed into a successful annual fundraiser helping families or individuals fighting cancer or other health crises. The crawfish boil tradition draws many of the same volunteers and supporters year after year and has raised over $100,000 for families in need.
After years of facilitating other organizations, many of the original volunteers have banded together to create We Care Williamson County, a 501c3 non-profit whose sole purpose is to assist those in need in our community. These volunteers have worked tirelessly together for years to assist fellow non-profits and families needing assistance and would like to thank you for your continued support.
