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.

Dylan Days 2016 beneficiaries are Harrison West, Angie Benthall, and Tommy Garner. Harrison is battling Ewing Sarcoma. Angie was hospitalized for several months after developing an infection while delivering her son. She has several months of rehab before she will be able to return to work. Tommy has been diagnosed with multiple myeloma and received a stem cell transplant at UNC in June.

Sunday was filled with a full day of activities starting with breakfast then cowboy church service, the horse show, Barbeque lunch, Dylan trivia contest, balloon release, birthday cake, Corn hole tournament and Chinese auction drawings.

Happy Birthday and balloon release can be seen at: https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fteck21567%2Fvideos%2F10207697133249903%2F&show_text=0&width=560
