Eastwood Homes hosts charity event for The HEARTest Yard

BY BRANDY TEMPLETON

Participants in the Eastwood Homes fundraiser for former Carolina Panthers great Greg Olsen’s foundation had fun racing on over-sized tricycles, eating BBQ and connecting with residents of the Peyton Creek community. Teams competed for bragging rights and a trophy. The event also featured a raffle with autographed NFL memorabilia.

The big winner was The HEARTest Yard, a program of the foundation that has raised more than $8 million for family support and service program for pediatric cardiovascular patients and their families in the Carolinas.
