Natalie Anton, 12, from Athens, is battling GIST cancer, according to a news release from Hollye Dunphy with Meadow Brook Mudders.
All event proceeds are donated to the families.
The event will feature multiple driving classes along with a children’s foot race, 50/50 raffle, food and ice cream, Tumblers and Meadow Brook apparel.

We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
For those stories that we do enable discussion, our system may hold up comments pending the approval of a moderator for several reasons, including possible violation of our guidelines. As the Maine Trust’s digital team reviews these comments, we ask for patience.
Comments are managed by our staff during regular business hours Monday through Friday and limited hours on Saturday and Sunday. Comments held for moderation outside of those hours may take longer to approve.
