Waldroop family benefit in Franklin

A benefit for Sam Waldroop will be at 4 p.m. Feb 15 at South Macon Elementary School in Franklin.

On Dec. 24, 2013, Sam Waldroop (son of Ricky and Julia Waldroop and brother of Christie and Amy Kinsland) was in a car accident, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down. The benefit is to help ease some of the financial stress of renovating his parents’ house to make it handicap accessible, and for future expenses.

The hamburger and hot dog dinner includes a silent auction, raffle items, kids’ games, cake auction and a live DJ.

At our inception 20 years ago, we chose to be different. Unlike other news organizations, we made the decision to provide in-depth, regional reporting free to anyone who wanted access to it. We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home. If you are able, please support The Smoky Mountain News.
