Cancer

Each year, thousands of children are diagnosed with cancer, severely affecting what many of us take for granted – the ability to have a healthy childhood. The mission of the Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic (PTATC) is to host an annual mixed doubles tennis tournament to raise funds that primarily support research to lessen the suffering caused by childhood cancer. Funds raised benefit the cancer research program at Children’s Minnesota.

Join us to try your hand at pottery! We will have a brief instruction on using the ceramics wheel and working with clay, followed by free time to create some amazing pieces that will later be fired and usable.
