A young boy from Wappingers is participating in a prestigious national competition where kids can become superheroes, according to Hudson Valley Post. The contest has reached its quarterfinals stage, and the boy, Joey, is still in the running. Joey's condition, Noonan syndrome, has not deterred him from showcasing his spirit and charisma.
Joey initially took the top spot in his quarterfinal group but has since slipped to third place, Hudson Valley Post reported. With the voting deadline approaching, his supporters are rallying to help him regain the lead. The competition's winner will receive a significant cash prize and other exclusive rewards.
The contest's voting process allows supporters to cast one free vote every 24 hours, with additional votes available through donations to the Stan Lee Foundation. As the voting period comes to a close, Joey's backers are working to mobilize support and gather more votes. The voting ends on Thursday, November 5, at 10pm Eastern.
In an effort to aid Joey's campaign, Newburgh Brewing Company is hosting a special event to raise funds and votes for the young contestant. The brewery will donate a portion of its sales from the event to the Stan Lee Foundation, which will help Joey gain more votes. The event will feature a trivia competition and other activities.
The fundraiser is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, November 4, from 4pm to 10pm, at the brewery's location in Newburgh. Joey and his family will attend the event, which will include a Marvel-themed trivia session hosted by Joey. Guests can walk in or make reservations online for the event.
With only a short time left before the voting deadline, Joey's supporters are hoping that the community will come together to help him reclaim the top spot.
