Selinsgrove, Snyder County-

Burns Tae Kwon Do in Selinsgrove will host a kick-a-thon on Saturday November 14th at 11:30am.

The event will benefit Dave Burns, former owner of the school, who was recently re-diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia.

Burns had been cancer-free for 14 years.

Money raised at the kick-a-thon will help pay for Burns' third bone marrow transplant.

We're told you don't have to be a good kicker to help. A bake sale will also be held in conjunction with the kick-a-thon.
