Blount Hosts Basketball Clinic To Benefit Memorial Fund

Minnesota Timberwolves center Mark Blount will host a basketball clinic for children next week in Coconut Creek to benefit the Veronicas Memorial Fund, a nonprofit organization that promotes awareness of the hazards of vehicle back-over accidents.

The Veronicas Memorial Fund was established in memory of Veronica Rosenfeld, who at age 2 was accidentally backed over by a vehicle. The organization has lobbied for vehicles to have sensors and/or cameras that eliminate their blind zones and help prevent drivers from backing over children.

For information, call Arden Rosenfeld at 561-470-0707 or visit Veronicaseyes.org.
