I'm sure you remember Ashley Marsh from her visit with Section 36. Well, she is now involved in a fantastic event. She is running a basketball camp for charity! Check it out.


Here's the press release from the event:

Laconia native Ashley Marsh is running for the title of Miss New Hampshire 2019 this April in Derry.

To be eligible to compete for the title of Miss New Hampshire, Marsh and the other 28 candidates must raise funds for Children’s Miracle Network hospitals. All money raised will go directly to the nearest network hospital, Boston Children’s. Marsh has visited Boston Children’s for the past two years for their Princess and Prince event, where she helps with arts and crafts, paint nails for that patients, and plays games with them.
