Spring Fling
A huge thanks to the community of Iron River for their generous support of the event! The Iron River community enjoyed a fun filled afternoon on Saturday celebrating Springs with a sock hop and kid’s carnival at the Iron River Community Center. All proceeds went to Essentia’s “Erick Peter Persons fund” which provides funds for the families of children who are being treated by the children’s cancer center. The funds provide support for family’s meals, lodging, and deductibles.
