Mostek benefit draws over 760, raises over $36,000
At its monthly meeting Monday, the Hebron City Council commended Hebron Fire and Rescue for the Aiden Mostek fundraiser, held Sunday at Stastny Community Center.
The department banded together to help Aiden and his family as Aiden battles a rare form of cancer. Aiden’s parents, Adam and Jennifer, are members of the volunteer fire department.
Spokesperson for the event, Justin Johnson, said approximately $36,500 was raised as a taco/potato bar and chili cookoff fed over 760 people, and silent and live auctions were held. The chili cookoff netted two winners out of 10 entrants for the People’s Choice — Pastor Steve Speichinger and Pastor Mark Baldwin.
