Dylan Moore Days is not only about celebrating the life of a special little boy that the community adopted as the "Roanoke Valley Cowboy"; it is also about "paying it forward".

The Moore family received an overwhelming amount of support during Dylan's illness and has made Dylan Moore Days an annual event benefit to help other families going through a medical crisis.

Since 2010, Dylan Days has raised over $80,000 for local families going through a medical crisis. This would not be possible without all of the volunteers, donors, and sponsors!!! Thank each and every one of you that helps make this event a huge success each year, rain or shine!!

This year’s Dylan Days proceeds will go to Charlie Beaver, Doug Hayes, and Susan Wells. Charlie was recently diagnosed with cancer and will have to take a leave of absence from his talk show on WPTM 102.3 to go through an intensive treatment regimen. Doug battled pancreatic cancer when he was 5 years old. He is now suffering from complications related to his treatment and will soon require a multi-organ transplant. Susan was also recently diagnosed with cancer and will be undergoing treatment for several months.
