The Kick Off of the 25th Annual Children's Miracle Network Celebration

Posted:

If you watched NewsChannel 11 at 6 Friday night, you know our studio was invaded by kids. That was the official launch of our 25th Annual Children's Miracle Network celebration.

All those kids and their families joined us tonight in the "Peacock Café" here at the station for a pizza party along with magic and other tricks by Jimbo the clown and his friend sweet Mimi.

You'll meet these families this weekend when their stories are profiled during our CMN broadcast.

To date, this event has raised more than nine million dollars for UMC's Children's Hospital. And we hope you'll join us again this year as we begin this 25th anniversary live from UMC at 3:00 p.m. Saturday. If you would like to donate click the link below, or you can call (806) 747-KIDS. The phone lines are already open.
