Fight for Nate raises $10,000

The Dec. 18 Fight For Nate fundraiser at New Richmond High School raised $10,000 according to preliminary results.

The money goes to the medical fund for Nate Kramer, a 2007 New Richmond High School graduate and school swimming record holder who was diagnosed with leukemia last June after finishing his swimming career at the University of Cincinnati. Kramer is awaiting a bone marrow transplant at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.

"We have a preliminary total -- approximately $10,000 -- and that doesn't include the City BBQ fundraiser tonight or the Mary Kay fundraiser that Carol Oetzel is doing," said event organizer Sue Griffin. "I think that's tremendous!"
