Silent Auction Being Held for Daughter of Bemidji Assistant Football Coach

Gianna McKeon

Friends and family of a Bemidji High assistant football coach whose daughter has been diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer are rallying to raise funds for the family.

Jim McKeon has been an assistant coach for the Jacks for more than a decade, but recently, his 10-year-old daughter Gianna’s bone cancer has spread.

A three-day silence auction for Gianna is being held at JD’s Outpost Bar & Grill in Solway from today, September 17 through Sunday, September 19. Anyone who would like to bid on items or donate items should stop by, or you can contact Danielle at 218-556-5605.

The Bemidji High Fooball Booster Club has already raised more than $5,000 for the family.
