Evan will be there with his family. He is well-known around Rhode Island as he is one of the “miracle kids” being treated by Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Providence. Hasbro is part of the “Children’s Miracle Network Hospital” organization, which is funded - in part - by the Miss America Scholarship Pageant Organization. Because of this Evan is a big supporter of the Miss Rhode Island Scholarship Pageant, and he is pictured above with Miss Rhode Island 2015 Alexandra Curtis of West Warwick.
He is also big baseball fan, and is picture above at a recent Paw Sox game!
