BIGGS, CA (MPG) – After a devastating diagnosis of T-Cell Leukemia, the Biggs community is rallying to help local Clint Owen and family during his treatment.

A fundraiser tri-tip dinner is being planned for Wednesday, Nov. 19 at the Gridley Moose Lodge. Doors are set to open at 5 p.m., with a dinner to follow at 6 p.m. Tickets are $25 a person.

Members of the family are preparing to hold a silent auction and multiple drawings; two custom-made fishing rods and a gun will be raffled off. With the exception of the silent auction, guests do no need to be present to win.

The public is urged to reach out to Cody Owen at 530-37-5377 or Melanie Owen at 530-693-5839 for questions and how to purchase tickets.
