USDGC Partner Dennis Lynn is auctioning  some of his most collectible discs to help raise money for his son-in-law, Mike Bennett, who has inoperable cancer.

More about Bennett: Earlier this spring, doctors discovered that Bennett, who is 35 years old, had cancer in his lower back. The cancer diagnosis, which blindsided the family according to Lynn, has left Bennett and his family with increasing expenses. Mike Bennett and his wife Ashley (Lynn’s daughter) live in Chattanooga, TN, and have three young children. Here’s a picture of Mike and his family before the cancer diagnosis. 

Funds Raised: Money raised through the auction of these discs and other collectibles will assist Mike Bennett and his family during this difficult time.

Donate to Bennett as well: If you are not interested in bidding for these discs, you may also donate money to Bennet directly via Paypal:  @mikedbennett

Discs included in fundraiser series: More than 20 of Lynn’s discs will be in the auction series and will include other rare and collectible discs from Nate Sexton, Ken Climo and more. We’ll update this blog with each auction item as it gets listed.
