BBQ and beach volleyball fundraiser being held for cancer warrior Wayne Eiley

Posted: Thursday, July 16, 2020. 12:42 pm CST.

By BBN Staff: A cancer diagnosis is sort of like a declaration of war. The patient and their loved ones are faced with a difficult battle with the patient’s life literally on the line. It’s no wonder then, people who receive that declaration, are called cancer warriors. The family of cancer warrior Wayne Eiley in Placencia is asking the public to support their barbecue and beach volleyball fundraiser on Saturday, July 25, to keep him in the fight.

The BBQ will be happening at two venues, one at the Battlefield Park in Belize City and the other on the beach near the Placencia Municipal Pier, starting at 10:00 a.m.   There will be mouthwatering barbecue chicken for $10 a plate, and pork for $12 with the options of either rice and beans and potato salad or homemade barbecue beans, flour tortillas, and potato salad. Sausage on a stick for $5 and sausage wraps for $6 will also be on sale starting at 10 a.m.

In Placencia, there will also be a beach volleyball tournament where teams of six (must include one female) will compete in open-age sets for a prize. Registration is $75 per team. DJ 3T will also be there to keep the atmosphere festive with the best in musical selections.

Cancer was the illness that killed the second-highest number of Belizeans in 2019, according to the Ministry of Health. Breaking Belize News (BBN) encourages communities across Belize to support initiatives for cancer warriors as the indiscriminate nature of this disease puts us all at risk of one day getting that declaration of war.
